Ophiopogon Japonicus Nana is also known as the Dwarf Mondo Grass. This dwarf variety, only half the size of others Mondo Grass species. It creates a lush groundcover of dense, dark green, grass-like clumps.
Mondo grass isn't a true aquatic plant. Some use it as a live aquarium ornament because it can stay underwater for a month or more, it will eventually die in the tank.
