Lariope Super Blue

Super Blue Liriope (Liriope muscari 'Super Blue') is a highly popular, clumping evergreen perennial that resembles ornamental grass but belongs to the lily family. Prized for its hardiness, it grows about 18 to 20 inches tall and wide. It produces stunning spikes of violet-blue flowers in the summer, followed by glossy black berries in the fall.

Key Care and Landscaping Details

• Sun & Soil: Thrives in partial shade to full sun and prefers moist, loamy, well-drained soil, but tolerates dry soil and salt spray once established.
• Hardiness: Survives winters down to Hardiness Zones 5–10.
• Maintenance: Low maintenance, though old, tattered foliage should be trimmed back in early spring before new growth emerges.
• Propagation: It spreads via clumps rather than invasive underground runners. You can easily divide the root clumps every 2 to 3 years in the early spring.
• Toxicity: It is considered toxic if ingested by pets.
