The Vinca Minor (common names Lesser Periwinkle or Dwarf Periwinkle) produces many beautiful flowers from March to May, which is often a sign that Spring is coming. The small blue flowers are enhanced by the glossy dark green foliage. The Dwarf Periwinkle is a hardy, trailing subshrub, covering the shady undergrowth, or spreading along tree roots and hardly accessible areas.
