Ophiopogon umbraticola (syn. chingii) 'Variegata'

A truly fantastic mondo grass, and unlike Kelly you're gonna be very hard-pressed to make me say those words again. Umbraticola itself is easily among the supreme members of the genus with its glossy blue fruit, lacey foliage, and extremely compact form. This selection adds the eye-popping lemon lime combo of bright solid yellow and dark green streaking that is fairly stable and easily purified when it goes South. You could bottle this up, carbonate it and sell it under an ever changing assortment of test-audience approved brand names though you wouldn't make much money given the glacially slow pace by which it multiplies. Good thing we never were ones for mass marketing.
