Ophiopogon Dwarf Mondo Grass Pint
We love this tough little grassy plant! If a low-maintenance evergreen carpet of deep green is what you need for a lawn, as a groundcover or to fill the gaps between stepping stones and pavers, Dwarf Mondo Grass might just be your plant. It is an evergreen groundcover that looks like turf...very deep green turf with narrow, linear, grass-like, dark green leaves (each leaf to 2 inches long and 3/16” wide). Tiny, spherical white flowers are nestled in the foliage but for the most part are inconspicuous on this dwarf.
