Vinca Major - Greater Periwinkle Ground Cover Plants (Pack of 40)
Vinca major, commonly known as Greater Periwinkle, is an evergreen ground cover that thrives in shady spots where other plants struggle. This bulk pack of 40 plants provides excellent coverage for borders, underplanting, and landscaping projects. Each plant arrives in a 9cm recyclable growing pot, standing 10-25cm tall and ready to establish quickly in your garden.
Key Features
This hardy ground cover features glossy, dark green leaves that maintain their color throughout the year. From early spring through summer, Vinca major produces beautiful purple-blue flowers that add vibrant color to shaded areas. The plant spreads by trailing stems that root at the nodes, forming a dense mat that naturally suppresses weed growth.
Growing Conditions
Vinca major adapts well to partial to full shade conditions, making it ideal for areas under trees and along north-facing borders. It tolerates a wide range of soil types but performs best in moist, well-drained soil. Once established, this ground cover requires minimal maintenance and demonstrates excellent drought tolerance.
Planting and Coverage
For optimal coverage, space plants 8-12 inches apart. Closer spacing creates faster coverage and immediate weed suppression, while wider spacing is more cost-effective for gradual fill-in. This bulk pack of 40 plants covers approximately 20-30 square feet when planted at recommended spacing.
Maintenance
Vinca major is a low-maintenance choice that thrives with minimal care. Water regularly during the first growing season to establish roots. After establishment, the plant tolerates dry conditions well. Trim back runners in spring to maintain desired boundaries and encourage denser growth.
