Isabella® Liriope muscari ‘LIRF’ 
- Great lawn alternative or garden border (now available in easy to use plugs)
- One mow per year
- Better performer than Mondo in full sun and works Australia wide
Description: This fine leaf compact spreading Liriope has beautiful pink flowers and is a one mow per year lawn alternative. Isabella® Liriope is a better border than Mondo as it performs better in full sun, drought and frost. It also recovers better from damage. Plant 6 per square metre for a full coverage lawn in 18-24 months or 12 per square metre for quicker coverage in 9-12 months.
Size: 40cm high x 50cm wide. 15 – 20cm high x 20 – 30cm wide when mown once a year.
Planting Density: 6-12 plants per m², 4-8 plants per linear metre.
Uses: Lawn alternative for sun and heavy shade, garden borders, specimen and mass planting. Ideal for use around stepping stones.
Position: Full sun to 90% shade. Tolerates frost, drought and humidity. Isabella suits all soil types.
Care: Water as required for 8-13 weeks until established. Plant in a well mulched garden if not using as a lawn alternative (chunky mulch is recommended). Use slow release fertiliser in spring if required. Mow/cut back once per year in July – August. (will look better with mowing every year, but if it can’t be mown new growth will cover discoloured leaves by spring or summer).
Where it works: NSW, ACT, QLD, VIC, SA, WA, TAS & NT.
