Black Mondo Grass, also known as Ophiopogon, is a small ornamental grass that is evergreen, meaning it lives for more than two years. Its black-purple foliage and contrasting pink flowers make it a striking outdoor plant suited for any garden, patio or balcony.
Height is measured from the bottom of the plastic nursery pot (please allow a +/-10% variance). Diameter is the nursery pot diameter, so to get a pot that fits, the pot diameter should be bigger.
