Ophiopogon japonicus (dwarf lilyturf,mondograss, fountainplant, monkeygrass; Japanese:リュウノヒゲ ryu-no-hige ("dragon's beard") or ジャノヒゲ ja-no-hige ("snake's beard")) is a species of Ophiopogon native to China, India, Japan, and Vietnam.
Description
It is an evergreen, sod-formingperennial plant. The leaves are linear, 20–40cm long. The flowers are white through pale lilac, borne in a short raceme on a 5–10cm stem. The fruit is a blue berry 5mm diameter. Underground, this species has large stolens with tuberous roots.
Cultivation
It is grown as an ornamental plant, providing an excellent groundcover. Several cultivars have been selected, including 'Albus' (white flowers), 'Compactus' and 'Kyoto Dwarf' (dwarf forms, not over 4–5cm tall), and 'Silver Mist' (variegated, with white-striped leaves). It is often sold as a decorative plant for freshwater aquaria, but because it is not a true aquatic plant, it can live for a few months underwater before it dies. While hardy to temperatures of about -20 °C when dormant in winter outdoors in normal soil, when kept fully submerged it requires water temperatures of 18-25 °C. It grows well in full sun or partial shade. Propagation is from side shoots.

Ophiopogon japonicus (dwarf lilyturf,mondograss, fountainplant, monkeygrass; Japanese:リュウノヒゲ ryu-no-hige ("dragon's beard") or ジャノヒゲ ja-no-hige ("snake's beard")) is a species of Ophiopogon native to China, India, Japan, and Vietnam.
Description
It is an evergreen, sod-formingperennial plant. The leaves are linear, 20–40cm long. The flowers are white through pale lilac, borne in a short raceme on a 5–10cm stem. The fruit is a blue berry 5mm diameter. Underground, this species has large stolens with tuberous roots.
Cultivation
It is grown as an ornamental plant, providing an excellent groundcover. Several cultivars have been selected, including 'Albus' (white flowers), 'Compactus' and 'Kyoto Dwarf' (dwarf forms, not over 4–5cm tall), and 'Silver Mist' (variegated, with white-striped leaves). It is often sold as a decorative plant for freshwater aquaria, but because it is not a true aquatic plant, it can live for a few months underwater before it dies. While hardy to temperatures of about -20 °C when dormant in winter outdoors in normal soil, when kept fully submerged it requires water temperatures of 18-25 °C. It grows well in full sun or partial shade. Propagation is from side shoots.
Can you remember when you were just six years old? With a trusting heart accepting everything you're told Anyone bigger must have been right even if they were wrong You'd take what is given, you didn't know better All your little mind could comprehend was goodness and truth Even when the baddest things were being done to you Ain't it a shame how you pay for your innocence? And you'd take what was given, you didn't know better about Loving, cheating, people leaving Dying, living, losing and forgiving Growing, saying no and being who you are What about the time when you became sixteen years old? With an unsure heart believing some of what you're told Wanting to be someone different, but there's pressure to be the same So you'd take what was given, you didn't know better All that you could think about was what you should or should not do Every single insecurity was magnified for you Then suddenly you began to feel all the contradictions But you'd take what was given, you didn't know better about Loving, cheating, people leaving Dying and living, losing and forgiving Growing, saying no and being who you are Now here you are a little older than before You've really been through it and you might go through some more But if there's one precious thing you've learned Is that you can't just take what is given and now you know better about Loving, cheating, people leaving Dying and living, losing and forgiving
