Description

Silvery Sunproof Liriope, also known as Lily Turf or Monkey Grass, is one tough plant. Stomp on it, drive over it with your car, cut it back to the ground…heck, we’ve accidentally sprayed it with glyphosate-based weed killers such as Roundup and it didn’t die. That said, we don’t advise spraying it with any broad spectrum weed killers!

Unlike other Liriope that will wildly spread where they are not wanted, ‘Silvery Sunproof’ forms neat clumps which gradually increase in size over time. In other words, you won’t see runners popping up 2 feet away from the plant!

Silvery Sunproof Liriope sports some very attractive variegated leaves of white to creamy yellow with a dark green strip down the center. Lilac-lavender flower spikes resembling hyacinths rise above the grass-like foliage clumps in summer, adding extra appeal. This is the perfect low-maintenance plant for edging landscape and garden beds, or for planting in mass as a groundcover or underplanting small to large trees such as Crape Myrtles. If you are looking for a long-lived, exceptionally tough border plant or groundcover, Silvery Sunproof Liriope is a hard one to beat.

Landscape & Garden Uses

Growing 15 inches tall and spreading 18 inches or so, its neat clump-forming habit make Silvery Sunproff Liriope ideal for use as a border edge along paths, walkways and patios. For an outstanding splash of color, plant in groupings or mass plantings landscape borders and home foundation plantings. An excellent underplanting for small or large trees. Provides excellent foliage contrast when planted under Red leaf Japanese Maples and other trees or larger shrubs with darker foliage. Also a nice grassy and colorful accent in combination container gardens.

Spacing: 12-15 inches for solid groundcover or border edging

Growing Preferences

Silvery Sunproof Liriope is very easy to grow. It tolerates a wide range of soils, and prefers a well-drained moist soil, however will grow just about anywhere. It grows in full sun or shade, but produces the brightest and whitest foliage color with more sun.

I could not be happier that I found Wilson Bros. Gardens. I live in rural WV and we don’t have a lot of interesting choices for plants. I bought my 70-year old home a few years ago, and wanted to honor the cottage-bungalow feel with colorful perennials. I look forward to the weekly e-mails with gorgeous pictures, and have found the Advice section helpful and inspiring!
I purchased the 18-count silvery sunproof liriope to line my flowerbed in the front of my house. I was looking for something easy to grow with interesting, variegated texture. This fit the bill! They arrived in great shape and were easy to plant!

They arrived in a good shape considering that they are categorized as die hard! From 18 that I have received 15-16 will survive for sure. 1-2 have very few leaves and we will see. I am OK with my order and may suggest it to others depending on what happens to them eventually. We will see.——————————-They are pretty reliable and tough, they shoud be fine. Let us know. Thanks for the review! Beth | WBG 🙂
