Description
Vinca minor 'Alba', commonly known as white-flowered lesser periwinkle, is a low-growing, evergreen shrub that is often used as a ground cover or mat. It typically reaches an approximate height of just 0.5 metres and can spread up to 1.5 metres. This variety features trailing, rooting shoots with pairs of dark green, glossy leaves that provide year-round foliage. From mid-spring to early autumn, it produces charming small white flowers that add a touch of elegance to the landscape.
Vinca minor 'Alba' thrives in a wide range of soil conditions, from well-drained to poorly drained, and can grow in full sun, partial shade, or full shade. This makes it a low-maintenance and versatile choice for most garden settings. Its dense growth habit and attractive evergreen foliage make white-flowered lesser periwinkle a practical and decorative option for garden ground cover, providing a lush and consistent carpet of greenery throughout the year.
