Vinca minor 'Bowles'

Common Periwinkle

Description:

> Zone: 4-9,  Height: 4-10"  Exposure: Full Shade to Partial Shade <

Vinca is in evergreen groundcover that makes a thick carpet of trailing stems. Blue, periwinkle flowers rise just above the deep green glossy foliage in spring. This is an excellent groundcover for shady areas of the landscape. It spreads underneath azaleas and other shade-loving shrubs. Hosta lilies and other shade perennials will pop right through it when emerging from dormancy in spring.
