Super Blue Liriope
Liriope muscariLiriope ‘Super Blue’ is an improved, vigorous variety prized for its bold foliage and exceptionally large flower spikes. Its rich green, arching leaves form dense clumps that provide a strong structural presence throughout the year. In late summer to early fall, the plant bursts into bloom with tall, vibrant violet-blue flower spikes, larger and more abundant than those of traditional Liriope varieties. These blooms bring a dramatic pop of color to borders, pathways, and shaded garden areas, followed by shiny black berries that add additional seasonal interest.
This hardy, adaptable perennial thrives in full sun to full shade, making it incredibly versatile across many landscape styles. Known for its durability, Liriope Super Blue tolerates heat, humidity, drought, and a wide range of soil conditions once established. Its spreading, clump-forming habit makes it ideal for groundcover, erosion control, and creating neat edging around walkways or garden beds. Whether used in mass plantings or as a single accent, this dependable plant offers beauty, resilience, and ease of care for gardeners at any skill level.
