Liriope inconnu feuille large

As the exact species of this Liriope could not be confirmed, this entry describes the genus in general, particularly its broad-leaved forms such as Liriope muscari. Native to East Asia (China, Japan, Taiwan), this Asparagaceae genus forms dense clumps of arching, glossy dark green strap-like leaves growing from short tuberous roots. In late summer, upright spikes bear tiered clusters of small violet flowers resembling those of Muscari, followed by decorative black berries. A hardy groundcover, it tolerates shade and adapts to a range of well-drained soils.
