Black Mondo Grass forms attractive clumps of black or near black foliage, making an unique ground cover or container plant. Tolerant of cool sun, it is most useful in shady locations and under landscape plants and trees. Particularly attractive in mass plantings, it is evergreen and spreads slowly without becoming invasive in temperate zones. Adaptable to a variety of light conditions and tolerates wet soil and salt air. Protect from harsh afternoon sun inland.
