Periwinkle
Vinca minor
Vinca minor, commonly known as Periwinkle or Myrtle, is a fast-growing, low maintenance groundcover that is ideal for adding color to shady areas in your garden. This evergreen plant produces dark green leaves that form a dense mat, and in the spring it produces a profusion of small, purple-blue flowers that resemble miniature morning glories. It is a tough and hardy plant that can grow in a wide range of soils, including dry, rocky or clay soils. Vinca minor spreads quickly by runners and can be used to cover large areas or to control soil erosion on steep slopes. It is also effective at suppressing weeds and is an excellent choice for difficult-to-plant areas such as under trees or in narrow strips along walkways. Vinca minor is a low-maintenance plant that requires minimal pruning or care, making it an ideal choice for busy gardeners. Overall, Vinca minor is a versatile, attractive and easy-to-grow plant that is perfect for filling in shady areas in your garden with a pop of color.
