Periwinkles galore! If you’re looking to easily enhance your garden and love shades of green, yellow, purple and blue then this is the very collection for you!
Each periwinkle has varying evergreen shades of foliage that are complimented beautifully with the violet blue complexions of the flowers. Vinca minor Illumination features a delicate blend of green and yellow leaves whilst Vinca minor La Grave boasts intricate white linings shaped like stars in the centre of their petals. Vinca Ralph Shugert provides the largest size of flowers so you can fully indulge in the beautiful violet blue tones of their petals.
Flowers will bloom in spring and flourish until early autumn, ensuring there’s months of vibrant colours for you to enjoy. Even during the winter months when the flowers have withered, the evergreen foliage will still shine brightly and provide much needed life during those subdued days.
Each periwinkle in this collection will attract a range of pollinators as bees and butterflies adore the purple petals and abundance of nectar.
As these periwinkles are all of the lesser variety, there’s no need to worry about them becoming invasive. They’re compact, neat and will keep weeds at bay when used as ground cover.
Supplied as three established plants in 9cm pots, ready for planting.
