}}Ophiopogon planiscapus is a species of flowering plant in the family Asparagaceae. It is a small evergreen perennial growing to {{convert|20|cm|0|abbr=on}} tall by {{convert|30|cm|0|abbr=on}}wide.[1] It grows from short rhizomes, and bears tufts of grasslike leaves, from which purple or white flowers emerge in racemes held on short stems above the leaves. It is native to Japan, where it grows on open and forested slopes.[2][3]

Garden use

The cultivar 'Nigrescens' (black mondo, black mondo grass[4] or black lilyturf) is grown as groundcover. Its leaves turn from green to dark purple (black) and can grow to {{convert|8|in|0|abbr=on}} tall and 1/4 inch wide. The flowers are white to pale lilac. This plant is commonly used in rock gardens or raised beds as an ornamental plant; owing to its dwarf qualities it can be lost in borders.[2] It has gained the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit.[5]

There is also two variegated forms called 'Little Tabby' and 'Silver Ribbon'. These are green with white borders around the leaves.[6]

Propagation

The plants spread by underground stolons with thick fleshy roots making fair sized colonies which can be separated by division in the spring.
