Evergreen Ground Cover
Vinca Myrtle / Periwinkle
Vinca minor
If you're looking for a ground cover plant that is not only beautiful but also easy to maintain, then creeping myrtle might be the right choice for you. This evergreen perennial has shiny green foliage that looks great all year round and is adorned with star-like blue flowers in spring. Creeping myrtle is a vigorous grower that thrives in a range of conditions from full sun to deep shade, and can tolerate both dry and moist soil. As an added bonus, it is also a butterfly magnet, making it a perfect addition to any garden or landscape. We carry these in small plugs (about 2" wide). Plant them 1 per square foot for a complete cover.
