Lirope muscari 'Emerald Goddess'






Liriope muscari, commonly known as Lilyturf or Monkey Grass, is a versatile and popular ornamental plant valued for its evergreen foliage and adaptability to various growing conditions. This perennial grass-like plant typically features arching, strap-like leaves that form dense clumps, making it an excellent choice for ground cover and landscaping. Liriope muscari produces spikelike racemes of small, bell-shaped flowers in shades of violet or lavender, adding a subtle charm to garden beds. Known for its low maintenance requirements and ability to thrive in both sun and shade, Liriope muscari is a favorite among gardeners seeking a resilient and attractive ground cover option.


Noteworthy among the cultivars is the "Emerald Goddess," known for being one of the largest Liropes available, vibrant blue-green foliage, and a height of around 3 feet, making it suitable for more restrained ground cover.
