Ophiopogon japonicus Nana (Dwarf Mondo Grass)

Ophiopogon japonicus Nana (Dwarf Mondo Grass) is a compact and slow-growing perennial that forms a dense, ground-covering mat of dark green foliage. This variety of mondo grass features small, fine leaves that create a lush, uniform carpet, making it a perfect choice for edging, borders, or as a low-maintenance lawn alternative. The plant thrives in shaded or partially shaded areas and is particularly ideal for filling in gaps beneath trees or in other low-light conditions.

While Ophiopogon japonicus Nana is mainly grown for its attractive foliage, it occasionally produces small, inconspicuous white flowers in late summer, followed by dark blue-black berries. This plant requires minimal care, making it a great option for both beginner and experienced gardeners alike.
