Why have my Blue Lilyturf plants stopped flowering?


Our Advice:

Blue Lilyturf (Liriope muscari), are clump forming herbaceous perennials that will stop flowering if they are overcrowded. They should be dug up, divided and replanted every 3-5 years. The best time to divide them is in the spring, discarding the old, woody centre of the clump and replanting the new young sections.
