Liriope muscari ‘Gold-banded’


Variegated Lily-turf

USDA Zone: 6-9

Plant number: 1.322.110


An easy and versatile evergreen perennial, often mass planted as a groundcover. This selection forms a handsome clump of dark-green grassy leaves with a narrow gold band along the edges. Spikes of tiny mauve-purple flowers appear in late summer. If plants look shabby in spring, trim the leaf tips with sharp scissors, or just mow back hard. Easily divided in spring. An excellent choice for edging, in the rock garden or in mixed containers. Very tolerant of summer heat and humidity. Drought tolerant once established.
