CLUMPING DWARF: Mondo Grass is perennial grass with dark foliage and produces white, but very small, flowers and berries during the early summer. This is a dwarf variety only reaching 4-6" in height and width unlike the larger grasses such as liriope.
VERSATILE: This decorative grass is great to use in the landscape along walkways, driveways, rock gardens, groundcovers, or under densely branched trees such as Oaks and Magnolias.
MAINTENANCE: If you are using this grass for your lawn there is little that is required to maintain it. You'll want to remove any weeds that appear and keep it dry in the dry season... that's it! Divide clumps every three years if grown as standalone plants.
