Silvery Sunproof Variegated Lily Turf is an herbaceous perennial with a ground-hugging habit of growth. Its relatively fine texture sets it apart from other garden plants with less refined foliage.
This is a relatively low maintenance plant and is best cleaned up in early spring before it resumes active growth for the season. It has no significant negative characteristics.
Silvery Sunproof Variegated Lily Turf features dainty spikes of lilac purple flowers rising above the foliage in late summer. Its attractive glossy grassy leaves remain dark green in colour with prominent gold stripes throughout the season. It features an abundance of magnificent black berries in early fall.
Silvery Sunproof Variegated Lily Turf will grow to be about 12 inches tall at maturity, with a spread of 18 inches. Its foliage tends to remain dense right to the ground, not requiring facer plants in front. It grows at a fast rate, and under ideal conditions can be expected to live for approximately 10 years. As an herbaceous perennial, this plant will usually die back to the crown each winter and will regrow from the base each spring. Be careful not to disturb the crown in late winter when it may not be readily seen!
