Couldn't load pickup availability
Silvery Sunproof Lily Turf (Liriope muscari ‘Silvery Sunproof’) is an ornamental, grass-like perennial valued for its variegated foliage, compact clumping habit, and seasonal purple flower spikes. Its narrow, arching leaves display green and creamy-white to silvery stripes, providing bright foliage contrast in garden borders, foundation plantings, pathway edging, and decorative outdoor containers.
Unlike spreading types of liriope, Liriope muscari generally develops dense, tufted clumps. Silvery Sunproof is particularly appreciated for its ability to maintain attractive variegated foliage in locations receiving sun or partial shade. The arching leaves create a fountain-like appearance that complements flowering perennials, shrubs, and other ornamental foliage plants.
During late summer to early fall, Silvery Sunproof Lily Turf produces upright spikes of small lavender-purple flowers. Dark berries may develop after flowering. This adaptable perennial prefers well-drained soil and moderate moisture, particularly during establishment. Its foliage is generally evergreen in mild climates but may show winter discoloration or dieback in colder regions.
Each order includes 1 live Silvery Sunproof Lily Turf supplied in a 1-quart nursery pot (QT).
