Greater Periwinkle, or vinca major, is a hardy, evergreen perennial that likes full or dappled shade but can also tolerate full sun.
‘This versatile plant is very fast growing forming a dense ground cover of glossy, ovate leaves which form the backdrop to prominent, star-shaped violet-blue blooms, which start to appear in early spring, with more flowers appearing in summer into autumn,’ says Lucy.
Once established, the only thing you need to keep in mind with this low-maintenance plant is its rapid and incessant growth. Keep it in check by hard pruning in early spring.
