Dwarf Mondo Grass is a compact clump forming evergreen ornamental grass with arching dark green foliage and small bell-like purple flowers that bloom atop of leafless stems in summer. The flowers are followed by pea sized blue-black berries that are often hidden in the foliage. Best grown in part sun and slightly acidic, moist well-drained soil.
