Vinca Plants: Hardy Ground Cover for UK Gardens | Dartana Plants

Vinca, commonly known as Periwinkle, is a versatile and hardy plant ideal for UK gardens. Belonging to the Apocynaceae family, Vinca species such as Vinca major and Vinca minor are prized for their glossy, dark green foliage and vibrant flowers in shades of purple, blue, and white. These low-maintenance plants are perfect for ground cover, borders, and rock gardens, thanks to their sprawling growth habit and ability to thrive in various soil conditions.

Vinca is drought-tolerant and grows well in both full sun and partial shade, making it an excellent choice for landscaping projects. Beyond its ornamental appeal, Vinca has historical uses in traditional medicine, and compounds derived from the plant are utilised in modern pharmaceuticals.

At Dartana Plants, we offer premium Vinca varieties including ‘Wojo’s Gem’, ‘Bowles Purple’, and ‘Illumination’, available in convenient plug sizes.
