Ophiopogon japonicus 'Comet' (Variegated Mondo Grass)
Part Sun to ShadeZone: 7-10, possibly colder 6" tall Origin: Japan
Ophiopogon 'Comet' is a little known selection of O. japonicus with narrow vertical white banding similar to other variegated cultivars, but the overall effect is a much darker plant, when used in mass. Whether there are less stripes, or the green is darker, we don't know...but it's definitely different! O. 'Comet' is not extraordinarily vigorous, but you should expect a 3' wide patch in 5 years...a great way to lighten the woodland garden. Pot size: 24 fl. oz (709.77 ml)
