Liriope (Lily Turf)
Liriope (Lily Turf) are evergreen herbaceous perennials forming compact clumps or spreading patches of narrow, arching leaves. In late summer, they boast erect spikes of thickly clustered, violet-purple flowers which are followed by shiny, black berries. Hardy, Lily Turf is a popular, alluring plant, particularly handsome when grown in large swaths or undulating rivers. A wonderful edging plant for walks, paths, pool decks, narrow spaces, this is also an excellent choice for placing in front of shrubs or under trees for a fluffy effect. Liriope can be used as a lawn grass substitute too. Deer resistant, it is also heat, humidity and drought tolerant.
