This really useful plant is a beauty lining walks, or defining the front of a border. It's easy to grow, spreads nicely, and stays low. Best of all, this hybrid gives you beautiful purple flowers each summer. Whether you call it Lilyturf, Monkey Grass, or Liriope, once you've planted it, that area is done. Lilyturf is not really a grass or a lily, but you'll love it.
