It would make a wonderful groundcover or a border in your perennial bed. Your Dwarf Mondo Grass is a grass similar to lawn grass, with a dark green color.

In the summer tiny blue flowers form, resembling little balls, adding a bit of additional decorative appeal. Dwarf Mondo Grass is a low growing grass that grows to about 4 inches, so if you use it as a lawn substitute keeping it short won’t be a problem, and you won’t spend all your weekends mowing it. It’s drought resistant, so no need to water. Even pests seem to avoid it, eliminating the need for costly pesticides. It also develops a thick mat of roots so planting it against foundations can aid in dealing with water run-off. Two of the enemies of grasses, deer and bunnies, tend to leave it alone, and it can even handle heavy traffic so using it around paving stones would be no problem at all.
