Mondo Grass

Mondo Grass (Ophiopogon japonicus) is the ultimate evergreen groundcover for shaded areas, offering a clean, sophisticated look. It forms dense, tufted mounds of narrow, dark green leaves that arch gracefully. In summer, tiny lavender flowers are tucked within the foliage, followed by ornamental blue-black berries. It is a staple of Japanese garden design, perfect for paths, borders, or between stepping stones.

As a versatile member of the Ophiopogon genus, Mondo Grass is famously low-maintenance and never needs mowing. It is exceptionally shade-tolerant and can thrive under the dense canopy of trees where other plants fail. Why you’ll love it: Sophisticated evergreen texture, incredibly low maintenance, and a resilient nature that handles deep shade and occasional foot traffic.

This healthy 4" live plant thrives in partial to full shade and prefers moist, well-drained soil.
