Is this ribbon grass or liriope spicata?

I have two of these planted in my front flowerbed, and in researching what kind of grass this is, it seems that either way it's invasive and might take over the bed?

I don't want it to turn into a ground cover where all I see is this stuff. I like the random plants with mulch all around look. They were planted back in April and haven't grown very much at all, should I dig them up?

Also, if I replant them (thinking of a spot right up against the house-a west facing wall where I have trouble growing grass), will it creep into my lawn if I don't make some sort of barrier? Here's a pic of the spot.
