Periwinkle (Vinca minor) – Evergreen Flowering Groundcover

This wandering evergreen perennial makes a superb flowering ground cover in the moist, shady areas of your garden. In the spring, it produces abundant azure blue flowers above shiny dark green leaves. It is an ideal under planting in woody areas, especially with broadleaf evergreens. Plant spacing: the average consensus is 12-18 inches apart. Photos courtesy of Toms Creek Nursery in Denton, NC Questions?
