Vinca minor, commonly known as Lesser Periwinkle, is a dependable evergreen groundcover celebrated for its glossy green leaves and charming star-shaped flowers. Flowering mainly in spring with sporadic blooms through summer, it forms a dense, mat-like carpet ideal for suppressing weeds and stabilising soil on banks or under shrubs and trees.
