Ideal Growing Conditions
Vinca major 'Variegata' thrives in partial shade to full shade locations, making it perfect for areas where other plants struggle. It tolerates a wide range of soil conditions, including dry or poor soils once established. This trailing ground cover grows equally well in full sun or deep shade, though foliage color remains more vibrant in partial shade.
Landscape Applications
This versatile ground cover excels in multiple garden settings: underplanting beneath trees and shrubs, stabilizing slopes and banks for erosion control, softening edges along pathways and borders, cascading over retaining walls, and filling gaps in woodland gardens. The vigorous growth habit quickly covers bare ground, creating a lush carpet of variegated foliage.
Bulk Pack Benefits
This 60-plant bulk pack provides cost-effective coverage for larger landscaping projects. Each plant arrives in a recyclable Ø9cm growing pot, ready for immediate planting. Plants are shipped directly from our nursery to ensure freshness and vigor.
Please note: Plants are living products and may therefore differ from the photo and description. We grow in a natural way and only intervene when necessary, which can sometimes cause the plant to show minor imperfections. These often recover in your garden. We guarantee that our plants are vigorous and long lasting. They are supplied in recyclable growing pots and are shipped directly from our nursery.
