The Big Blue LilyTurf, or Liriope, is a grass-like perennial ground cover plant that forms dense clumps of slender, strap-like dark green leaves, reaching around 18 inches tall. In late summer or early fall flower spikes rise a little above the leaves, with lavender-blue flowers all along them. These are often followed by black berries that persist through winter. This tough plant is the best ground cover there is for dry shade, and it grows just as well in full sun. Give your shrub beds an added dimension with this weed-choking ground cover.

The Big Blue Liriope grows from zone 5 to 10, and it is fully evergreen in zones 7 to 10. It tolerates full sun, partial shade and full shade equally well, thriving even in the most difficult spots. It grows well in most soils, and once established it is drought tolerant and reliable. Free of pests and diseases, deer tend to avoid it too.
