Greater periwinkle 'Alba'

With its pure white flowers, Vinca major 'Alba' adds bright accents to shady garden areas. The evergreen, glossy foliage forms dense mats and remains attractive outside the flowering period. This robust hardy plant is ideal for covering large areas under trees, on slopes, or as an attractive ground cover in naturalistic plantings.

Watering and Care

Vinca major 'Alba' performs best in well-drained garden soil that retains some moisture without becoming waterlogged. During extended dry spells, regular watering helps the plant remain healthy and encourages strong flowering. Once established, it becomes more resilient, but consistent care will always result in the most attractive growth.

Maintenance

Remove faded flowers and damaged foliage on a regular basis to keep the plant looking tidy. Cutting back old stems in spring encourages fresh new growth and helps maintain a neat habit.

Location

A position in full sun or light partial shade is ideal. Rich, loose soil with good drainage allows the plant to develop fully and produce abundant blooms.
