About This Item
Fast growing upright annual vinca with beautiful flowers only spreading 6 - 8 inches. Height reaches 10 - 12 inches making this variety ideal for containers, beds, or borders
Large, brightly colored apricot blooms cover these beautiful plants. The strong root system helps the plants to survive hot and humid summers. Join this periwinkle plant with other heat loving bedding plants in the garden on in the container.
Vinca is best grown in full sun areas or areas that get at least 6 hours of direct sunlight a day. Soil should be well drained and these drought tolerant plants do not need a lot of water so be careful not to overwater. Season long blooms bursting with color from late Spring to late Summer for gardens and containers.
Sow 2 - 3 seeds per plant. Grow Vinca seeds indoors 4 - 6 weeks before the last frost is expected. Cover the Vinca Periwinkle seeds with 1/4 inch of potting mix, spray with water to moisten and press down lightly. Vinca flower seeds will not germinate in any sort of light, so cover trays or containers with a black plastic sheet or a newspaper. Lift the plastic or newspaper regularly to moisten by misting.
Once Periwinkle seedlings emerge, they need bright light. At about 2 - 3 inches tall, transplant the strongest plants into individual pots. The plants can be moved outside once the temperature is consistently above 65F degrees.
