Overview

Creeping Liriope (Liriope spicata) is a low-maintenance, evergreen grass-like plant native to East Asia. Its tall, wiry stems are lined with slender, dark-green foliage. With bright, lavender-colored flowers sprouting up in autumn, creeping Liriope is beautiful addition to any garden. As it spreads with ease, the creeping Liriope looks great when planted along garden beds and in rock gardens. It's also prized for its ability to tackle weed-prone areas.
