Mondo Grass and Liriope Lawn Maintenance

When we choose a lawn alternative such as Mondo Grass or Liriope we are not actually choosing a different type of lawn. We are replacing a grass lawn with a lawn alternative, and in this case we are using some great ground hugging plants instead of a grass.

It's because we are using plants, that the maintenance and care for these lawn areas will be far different than the maintenance required for a grass lawn. Best of all, Liriope and Mondo Grass both require far less care than lawns do.

Let Liriope and Mondo Spread

The first rule of using Mondo and Liriope is that it is often more generally spread out at the planting stage, over time these plants will naturally spread out further and fill into the area which is being covered.
