There are about 20 varieties of various liriope species in the commercial trade. âBig Blueâ, or some form thereof, is the main variety you find at garden centers, although it will frequently just be named green liriope. You can also buy variegated liriope.
Chlorophyll is the green pigments in plants, algae, and cyanobacteria that absorbs energy from light during photosynthesis. Its main function is to absorb light energy and pasâ¦s it onto the photosystems in order to generate the energy needed to continue photosynthesis.
The light absorption processes associated with photosynthesis take place in large protein complexes known as photosystems. The one known as Photosystem II contains the same kind of chlorophyll a as Photosystem I but in a different protein environment with an absorption peak at 680 nm. (It is designated P680).
