Description:
Liriope spicata, native to China and Vietnam, is a rhizomatous, grass-like perennial often used as a groundcover. It features clusters of narrow, arching, glossy dark green leaves and erect flower spikes with white to pale lavender flowers, followed by shiny blue-black berries in late fall. This plant is heat, humidity, and drought-tolerant, thriving in USDA zones 4 to 10. It is easily propagated by dividing the root mass and rhizomes and is known for its ability to filter pollutants from the air.
