		Leaf and crown rot is caused by a strain of the common plant pathogen, Phytophthora palmivora.
		THE PATHOGEN - Leaf and crown rot of Liriope is incited by the fungus-like organism, Phytophthora palmivora.
		Inoculation of healthy Liriope plants with zoospores of P. palmivora produced in pure culture consistently resulted in the infection of roots, the crown area, and leaves and eventually, typical, leaf and crown rot damage.

		Liriope can be established almost any time of year; however, good results can be expected with less after-care it if it is planted in the fall months or in January or February before new shoot growth becomes active.
		If they are planted about eight inches apart, watered and fertilized properly, they should multiply to about six times the original number after two growing seasons.
		Liriope and mondo respond to a light application of general-purpose lawn or shrub fertilizer in the spring and again in midsummer.

	Infobytes: Time to Trim Liriope
		Liriope, often referred to as "monkey-grass", is frequently planted in southern landscapes as an edging material for walkways, flower beds, and groundcover for shady spots in the garden.
		Liriope forms close mats of dark-green or variegated foliage and is a great landscaping plant.
		While liriope will tolerate a range of soil types and performs well under a variety of landscape conditions, the plant is susceptible to a foliage blight which often detracts from its appearance during late fall and through the winter.

		Both species of liriope grow only about one foot tall so they are perfect for borders or for surrounding trees and shrubs.

	PlantFiles: Detailed information on Variegated Lily Turf, Lilyturf, Monkey Grass 'Variegata' (Liriope muscari) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-12)
		We found clumps of variegated liriope interspersed among the liriope lining one backyard bed, so we pulled it out and used it to line a smaller bed (it's much more effective when massed.) It's slower to spread than the "plain green" kind, but worth the effort and patience to grow.
		Love this plant, and another combination is with purple wood sorrel (oxalis), a deep purple leaved shamrock looking plant with little pink flowers.
		I planted four of these and only two came up this year, but I'm not sure if it was because my soil is heavy clay and perhaps I didn't put in enough mulch.

	Perennials
		One of the major keys to success with perennials (this is also true of house plants) is to use plants that fit the environment you have in your yard.
		There are a number of wonderful foliage plants which don't necessarily bloom which will lend body to the border and provide an excellent backdrop for the flowering plants.
		Also, your foliage plants will continue to lend their good looks to the border while some of the colorful plants cease to be so attractive once their season of bloom has passed.
