Cleopatra™ is an excellent choice for many landscape design elements; from borders and pathways to location challenges such as shady areas and slopes. A clumping liriope, Cleopatra’s foliage spans 15 inches and is darker and wider than other varieties. In the summer, lovely lavender spikes elegantly rise above the dark green foliage.
