Creeping Myrtle

Item

Title
Vinca minor
Description
Myrtle performs best at sites with afternoon shade and supplemental moisture during the Summer. When newly planted, Vinca plugs need plenty of irrigation and a little weeding during the first season. When this occurs, competitive weeds will usually be choked out in the following years due to the thick establishment of its rooting stems.
