Crystal Falls® Mondo Grass

A shade-loving and cold hardy Mondo Grass.  Dark, wide leaves grow 24 to 30 inches long on this disease resistant plant.  Panicles of star shaped, white blooms appear from summer to fall followed by bright blue berries in winter.

For new plantings
1. Dig a hole one and a half times wider than the plant's container
2. Place plant in hole, keeping the top of the root ball ground level
3. Back fill with dirt
4. Water thoroughly and then mulch around the base to conserve moisture and reduce weeds
New plantings require more frequent watering than established plants. Wind, temperature and soil are factors to consider in watering.
Feed plants in early spring and again in early fall with an all-purpose fertilizer, following label instructions.

Care Instructions
Mondo grass requires low maintenance and is relatively easy to care for. It prefers to be planted in well-draining soil with a slightly acidic pH level. It thrives in partial to full shade and should be watered regularly, especially during hot and dry weather. Mondo grass does not require fertilization frequently, but an occasional dose of a slow-release fertilizer will help it grow. It also benefits from regular pruning to keep its shape. Remove any dead leaves or stems. Refrain from trimming the plant during the fall season to allow it to grow fully before winter hits. If grown in pots, ensure that the soil is moist but not waterlogged. Avoid over-watering and over-fertilizing, as it can lead to root rot and other plant diseases.
