Ophiopogon japonicus |
Mondo Grass - A unique grass that originated in Korea. From the beginning of its trade popularity, it became highly cherished in the country of Japan. Its low light requirements allowed for its usage in Tea Houses throughout Kyoto and Tokyo in the 1900s. Best planted in clusters for a matted effect or discontinuous for a border-like effect. Prevents runoff along walkways and is widely used in many botanical gardens, especially at the Missouri Japanese Botanical gardens.
