Description:
Ophiopogon Stripey White, commonly known as Variegated Mondo Grass, is a sought after plant for its unique foliage pattern and texture. Stripey White features slender, arching leaves that are predominantly dark green with distinctive white stripes running along the edges. The leaves grow in dense clumps, forming a low-growing groundcover. In late summer to early autumn, small spikes of pale pink to white flowers emerge from the foliage, adding subtle charm to the overall appearance. Well-suited for borders, edging, mass plantings, or as a striking accent in rock gardens, providing visual interest to the landscape. Grows to approx. 30cm H x 40cm W.
