LIRIOPE GIGANTEUM

“Giant Liriope”

Family: Liliaceae 

1 scoop - approx 30 seeds

Liriope Giganteum has purple flowers resembling hyacinth.  A strappy-leaved plant commonly used in landscaping as an easy care, perennial and flowering, evergreen, border plant and shrub.  Being a clump-forming species, it does not ‘run’ or become invasive like some other Liriope species.  Suitable for erosion control in some situations, it can be mass planted and will flower well though spring, summer, and even into autumn. Up to 1m H x 1m W, it is a hardy, drought resistant plant, easy to establish, with a range of varieties.  Happy in either full sun or partial shade, it can withstand frost down to -5C and tolerates dry conditions too. Prefers well drained sandy and loamy soils with a neutral-alkaline pH. 

Edible Uses 

Root – cooked.  The roots sometimes have a fleshy, tuberous part near their tip. Can be candied.
