Grow all types of liriope in full sun to partial shade, and in moist, well-drained soil. Established plants can grow in high heat, excessive humidity and drought-prone areas.

Can you grow liriope in shade?

Liriope is remarkably tough. It will grow in deep shade or full sun, sand or clay. It can endure heat, drought and salt spray, but will not take “wet feet”; it requires moist, well-drained soil. Flowers are produced most freely in a sunny location.

What conditions do liriope like?

Liriopes prefer growing in light shade, but they can be also planted in a sunny spot. They are happy most soils that drain well, including drier soils.
