Liriope Silver Dragon is a grass-like perennial which forms clumps of narrow leaves that typically grow 12 to 15 inches high. The leaves are striped with white. Among the leaves in late summer you can expect erect flower spikes with pale lavender flowers to arise. The flowers often give way to berries in the fall. In Southern California this is an evergreen plant.
Liriope Silver Dragon is easily grown in average well-drained soil in full sun to part shade. It prefers moist fertile soils in partial shade. Liriope Silver Dragon spreads quickly and can be quite aggressive.
