Flowering Evergreen perennial - Long flowering season - Easy to grow Periwinkle is an evergreen flowering ground cover plant for shade, grown peat-free in Wales. A stunning choice for shaded borders, woodland gardens, and beneath trees where it spreads as a low-growing carpet. Perfect for softening edges along pathways and disguising bare patches on banks or slopes. Plant in partial to full shade with well-draining soil enriched with organic matter.
