Best Season for Planting:
For best results, plant Periwinkle seeds in spring after the last frost, or start indoors a few weeks earlier to get a head start. These hardy plants thrive in various conditions, offering beautiful blooms throughout the growing season.
Flower Characteristics:
Periwinkle, also known as Vinca, produces charming, star-shaped flowers in shades of blue, purple, and white. The plants feature glossy, evergreen foliage and typically grow low to the ground, spreading to form a dense, attractive cover.
Benefits:
In addition to their visual appeal, Periwinkles are excellent for preventing soil erosion and suppressing weeds, making them a functional choice for both aesthetics and practicality.
Planting Instructions:
Choose a location with partial shade to full sun and well-drained soil. Scatter seeds on the soil surface and gently press them in, lightly covering with soil. Keep the area consistently moist until germination, usually within 14-21 days. Space plants about 12-18 inches apart to allow for optimal spreading.
Care Tips:
Periwinkles are low-maintenance and drought-tolerant once established. Water them regularly during dry spells but avoid overwatering. Fertilization is typically unnecessary, but you can apply a balanced fertilizer if desired to boost growth. Prune as needed to maintain a tidy appearance and remove any dead or spent foliage.
