I bought my house about 10 years ago and the garden consisted of a lawn with lots of weeds. I dug up all of the lawn and started from scratch.

Help me identify this plant. Some kind of lily but has never flowered.

This looks like Aspidistra or the Cast Iron plant! Grows indoors in poor light, best in #shady spots outdoors! #Tough and hardy as the name suggests, best kept in pots or will spread rapidly in the garden.

Aspidistras have very small insignificant flowers that are easy to overlook. #castironplant #aspidistra
