Vinca minor - Atropurpurea

An elegant evergreen groundcover, Vinca minor ‘Atropurpurea’ forms a glossy mat of dark green leaves springing purple–wine blooms. Standing about 4–6 in (10–15 cm) tall and spreading 12–18 in (30–45 cm), it's perfect for edging, rock gardens, containers, or underplanting shrubs and trees. Thriving in full sun to full shade across zones 4–9, it adapts to most well‑drained soils and once established tolerates occasional dry spells. Low‑maintenance, quick to cover ground, drought‑ and deer‑resistant, it also attracts butterflies—cherished for its reliable seasonal color and evergreen structure
