Answer 1

It looks right to be Mondo. I would say that they look a little stressed, likely from overwatering.

Make sure that the ground has a chance to dry out, thoroughly, down to about 2 or 3 inches between watering to prevent this. They need moist soil, but the top needs to dry out, since this is where diseases will be most likely to live.
