Trailing Vinca (Catharanthus Roseus)

Grown for its foliage and flowers, trailing VINCA is a genus of evergreen, sub shrubs and herbaceous perennials. Its flowers are tubular with five spreading lobes. Vinca is useful for ground cover in shade. However, it also flowers more freely in some sun. It grows in any soil that is not too dry. It may be propagated by cuttings or by division from fall to spring.  It is a low maintenance trailing plant that spreads easily and hence vinca is a common choice for ground cover in a garden bed. All parts of this plant may cause mild stomach upset if ingested. It is a star performer throughout the summer and is very vigorous. Vinca is a perfect choice for beds and borders and is superb for baskets, containers and window boxes. Vinca is Wonderful for combination plantings. It flowers in shades of pink, white, purple, red, lavender, and bicolor.
