Vina Minor – Vinca

Vinca, commonly known as periwinkle, is a hardy ground cover known for its leathery leaves and five-petaled flowers, which come in blue, purple, or white. This perennial grows to be 6-8 inches tall and is often used in areas with slopes or as a low-maintenance ground cover. Vinca thrives in part shade to full shade, making it an excellent choice for shaded areas or under trees. It’s not only attractive with its colorful blooms but also helps control soil erosion, making it a functional and decorative addition to gardens.
