Do you remember the rock candy that was sold at fairs on long lollipop sticks? Ingwersen, with her lilac-purple flower spikes looks just like those tasty treats making her a feast for the eyes when in bloom. Her clumping , arching emerald foliage offers a hardy evergreen 1/2 inch wide blade that seems to bow in the breeze. She blooms profusely in mid-late summer and then yields bright purple berries (a treat for the birds ) in autumn. Willing to tolerate full sun and drought , her ideal scenario is part shade to full shade in well-drained soil. Of all the Liriopes, if what you are after is a show-stopper, this is the one to choose. With her low-maintenance disposition, rich green color and scads of flowers and berries, she is a stunning floral display whether used in mass plantings or simply as a border . Interesting Facts This variety is one of the most popular Liriopes in Europe, yet is virtually unknown in the US. Gardener Tips Experimenting with Ingwersen can be a great deal of fun as she looks good in so many applications. We're particular fond of pairing her with a Stonecrop like ' Weihenstephaner Gold Stonecrop ' and the elegant Kwanso Daylily because their rust and pumpkin shades seem to offset Ingwersen in a magical way.
