Vinca major is a hardy, fast-growing groundcover native to southern Europe and Asia Minor. This plant is known for its glossy green leaves and purple to blue-purple flowers that bloom in spring and summer.
Vinca major is a strong outdoor plant that requires little maintenance and expands quickly via creeping stems. It is ideal for covering bare ground and suppressing weeds. You can lightly prune the plant after flowering to keep it compact and control growth.
This plant has medium water requirements and likes slightly moist, well-drained soil. It tolerates short dry periods well, but give extra water in prolonged drought.
Vinca major grows well in both sun and shade. In the sun it flowers more profusely, while in the shade it grows better and its leaves remain fuller.
Yes, the Vinca major is mildly toxic if ingested. It is therefore advisable to keep the plant away from children and pets.
