Vinca Major | 2L Pot

Red buds add even more seasonal interest. Position: full sun or partial shade Soil: moderately fertile, moist, well-drained soil Rate of growth: average Flowering period: December to April Hardiness: fully hardy A valuable garden staple, this evergreen shrub provides year-round interest and will produce its red buds and soft pink and white flowers, which appear in flattened clusters from midwinter onwards, at a time when colour is all the more important. Tough and tolerant of shade, it is a low-maintenance shrub that works equally well in the shrub border or large pot. It can also be used to make an informal flowering hedge. Garden care: Remove any over-vigorous shoots that threaten the shape of established specimens in early summer, cutting them well back to within the plant’s outline.
