Default lariape for ground cover

This is so basic, but I don't know...I would like to transplant this
beautiful
ground cover (it has dark berries at times) to cover a partially
shaded hill..
...poor soil. Any tips on when the best time of the year is to do
this ?

I don't think so. I think it is being misspelled on the site you
show.

Looks like liriope to me.
Variations in spelling are not uncommon.

Taxonomy assigns one Latin term to a plant which is spelled the same
way. This different spelling of same plants is what common names are
for.

In a perfect world, maybe.
People misspell proper names everyday.

Are you saying it is not Liriope muscari ?

If you look at the entire thread, someone said these were two entirely
different plants. I said, no the website misspelled it and it went on
from there. I don't know if it's L. muscari, I do know it is Liriope,
not Lariape.
