Dwarf Mondo Grass Minor

Dwarf Mondo Grass Minor (Ophiopogon japonicus ‘Minor’) is the ultimate choice for a sophisticated, low-maintenance “living carpet.” This variety is even more compact than the standard ‘Nana’, featuring very short, stiff, dark emerald-green blades that form a dense, slow-spreading mat. It is a classic element in Japanese-style gardens, used to create a tranquil, moss-like appearance that stays green year-round.

As a resilient member of the Ophiopogon genus, ‘Minor’ is exceptionally tough once established and can handle light foot traffic, making it perfect for planting between flagstones or as a formal edge for garden beds. Why youll love it: Deep emerald color, ultra-compact architectural habit, and a bulletproof nature that thrives in both sun and deep shade.

This healthy 4″ live plant is highly adaptable and requires well-drained soil.
