What growing conditions are required for Liriope?
Most liriopes do well when planted in moderate to full shade. If a landscape application calls for full sun, be sure to choose a cultivar that performs well in this exposure. (Click on the on our Inventory Page for Liriope cultural info.) Even though liriope will survive in the poorest of soils and growing conditions, it will perform best when the soil is loose, well drained and has a neutral pH. Since the roots are shallow, tilling the soil to a depth of 8-10 inches before planting is usually sufficient. Using lime to raise the pH of an acidic soil is always a good practice.
