Periwinkle Plants for Sale Online

Vinca Minor or Periwinkle is one of the best ground-covers for shade. It’s an excellent choice for an erosion control specimen. Myrtle produces large, violet-blue, pinwheel-shaped flowers highlighted against glossy dark green leaves and is evergreen in most climates. Although this plant is shade-tolerant in warmer climates, it will tolerate full-sun in northern climates. However, growing Periwinkle in partial shade creates a more vigorous growth.

Once established, Periwinkle is drought resistant and needs little other care if properly sited in the landscape. This plant grows in moist soils, but prefers nutrient-rich, moist soil. Native to Central and Southern Europe, Periwinkle usually blooms in May through June.
