Ophiopogon Japonicus | Mondo Grass
Ophiopogon Japonicus, commonly known as mondo grass, Ophiopogon jaburan green is a species of evergreen perennial plant that belongs to the Asparagaceae family. It is native to East Asia, particularly in China, Japan, and Korea, but is also widely cultivated in other parts of the world for ornamental purposes.
Features of Ophiopogon jaburan green
- Evergreen perennial: Mondo grass is an evergreen plant, which means it retains its leaves throughout the year, providing year-round visual interest in the landscape.
- Grass-like leaves: Grass-like leaves that grow in dense tufts, forming a low-growing mat of foliage that can reach up to 12 inches in height.
- Dark green color: The leaves are typically dark green in color, although some cultivars may have variegated leaves with white or yellow stripes.
- Low maintenance: It is a low-maintenance plant that requires very little care once established. It is drought-tolerant, deer-resistant, and pest-resistant, making it a great choice for low-maintenance landscapes.
- Ground cover: Used as a ground cover plant because of its dense growth habit and ability to tolerate a wide range of soil conditions.
How to care Ophiopogon Japonicus
-
- Watering: It prefers consistently moist soil but can tolerate short periods of drought. Water the plant deeply once a week, or more often during hot, dry weather.
- Fertilizing: It does not require a lot of fertilizer, but you can apply a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in the spring to promote healthy growth.
- Pruning: It does not require regular pruning, but you can trim back any yellow or damaged leaves to keep the plant looking neat and tidy.
- Soil: Prefers well-drained, slightly acidic soil. If your soil is heavy or compacted, amend it with compost or organic matter before planting.
- Light: They prefer partial to full shade but can tolerate some sun in cooler climates.
