This is also an
excellent evergreen ground cover for shaded and semi-shaded areas. Dark
green oval-shaped foliage and conspicuous blue flowers in early Spring.
Plant 6 to 8 inches apart. Combines with Pachysandra if each kind is
kept in large colonies, not mixed together. Grows 4" to 6" off the
ground at maturity. VINCA MINOR, like Pachysandra,
likes fairly good soil.
All Vinca
varieties listed below are nursery propagated 1-year heavily rooted
cuttings with excellent foliage and roots!
Vincas do well in
a good, loose, fertile soil with an acidic pH under 6.0. MiracleGro and
MirAcid are well-accepted by vinca plants. If you intend to
mulch these groundcovers, we suggest you use medium or fine shredded
mulch but not more than one inch deep.
