Hi Shilpa, I just looked at your list, I have Black Mondo grass also, a small division. Would you trade for your Geranium 'Orion'? Let me know ;^)

There is no recognized form of "dwarf" black mondo - Ophiopogon planiscapus 'Nigrescens' - in fact, there is in reality only one true form with various cultivar names ('Arabicus', 'Ebony Knight', etc.) generally considered synonymous with Nigrescens. Foliage height can be very variable and a lot will depend on growing conditions. This plant is not a true OG but a member of the lily family and prefers an acidic and rich, well-draining but moisture retentive soil and at least part sun for best growth. And it is indeed slow to establish and spread.

Putting together a gothic garden to give the gargoyles I bought to decorate for Halloween a permanent home ( DH's idea!) and saw some black mondo grass while out bulb shopping. Was wondering if anyone had any seeds, tubers, rhizomes or even plants they would like to trade for. If so, please email me and given me an idea of what you'd like. My trade list is WAY out of date, but I would be happy to comb my seed boxes for specific items. I also have some fall bulbs I'd be willing to share in exchange. Thanks! Kathy
