Variegated Liriope (Monkey Grass) is a clumping evergreen perennial prized for its arching, green leaves edged in creamy white. In late summer to early fall, it bears spikes of lavender-purple flowers above the foliage. Exceptionally versatile, it works beautifully as a groundcover, border plant, or in containers and tolerates sun to full shade. This low-maintenance plant is deer- and rabbit-resistant and stays neatly in clumps without spreading aggressively.
