Mini Mondo Grass

Mini Mondo Grass (*Ophiopogon japonicus* 'Nana') thrives in partial shade to full shade but can tolerate some direct sunlight. It is ideal as a low-growing ground cover, border plant, or filler between pavers, forming dense clumps of dark green foliage. Mini Mondo Grass is perfect for compact spaces and requires a well-draining site to prevent root rot.

Mini Mondo Grass prefers a temperate to subtropical climate, withstanding a range of temperatures from 5°C to 25°C. It is hardy and frost-tolerant, making it suitable for various climates. This plant maintains its foliage year-round, adding texture and greenery to shaded garden areas.

Plant Mini Mondo Grass in well-draining soil. It adapts to a variety of soil types, including loamy and sandy soils, and prefers a slightly acidic to neutral pH (6.0-7.0). Adding organic matter, such as compost, can improve soil quality and help retain moisture without causing waterlogging.

Feed Mini Mondo Grass with a balanced, slow-release fertiliser in early spring to support healthy growth. Minimal fertilising is typically needed, but an annual application of compost or a mild fertiliser can help maintain lush foliage.
