Oplismenus
Genus of 6 species of trailing, annual or perennial grasses from tropical and subtropical forest in Africa, Asia, Polynesia, and Central and South America. Basket Grass is an excellent alternative to Tradescantia. Its slender stems spread rapidly and trail dracefully. Oplismenus may be recommended as a ground cover. One of its blessings is the simplicity of rasing new plants.
