Ophiopogon intermedius
Ophiopogon is a genus of evergreen perennial plants native to warm temperate to tropical east, southeast, and south Asia. Despite their grasslike appearance,
they are not closely related to the true grasses Poaceae. The name of the genus is derived from Greek ophis, "snake", and pogon, "beard", most probably referring to its leaves and tufted growth.In the APG III classification system, it is placed in the family Asparagaceae, subfamily Nolinoideae (formerly the family Ruscaceae).
Like many lilioid monocots, it was formerly classified in the Liliaceae.
They grow from short rhizomes, and bear tufts of leaves, from which flowers emerge in racemes held on short stems above the leaves.
