Regular Mondo Grass
Shipping & Returns
Shipping live plants sometimes has its challenges when dealing with inclement weather but we strive to have every single order shipped out on their scheduled shipping date. Most orders will be scheduled to ship within 1-2 weeks of ordering. Because a plant needs TLC we only ship out on Mondays-Wednesdays to ensure the plants aren’t stationed somewhere over the weekend with no water or sunlight.
A traditional ground cover in Japanese-style gardens, this gorgeously green Mondo Grass stays small so you won’t find a better ground cover, plant to use as a border or edge plant or evergreen to be placed in small clusters or in mass for a sea of green you won’t get elsewhere. Featuring stemless dark green grass-like leaves and tiny spikes of lavender flowers that appear during the Summer months, this easy-care plant is made even more lovely by the fact that you have to do very little work to keep it looking nice. In order to allow your Mondo Grass to reach its full potential, make sure to plant it in partial to full sun, in moist, well-drained soil and remember to water it regularly and it should easily, via a moderate growth rate, reach its maximum size of 12-15 inches tall and wide.
