  • Flower ID please?

    Saw this at my MiL and wondered what it was? Considering pinching a cutting depending on what you think it is! It's growing round a wooden fence.

    It looks like Vinca to me. I've got a variegated leaf on mine. Really useful plant, good ground cover in shady spots.

          Jay it looks like a periwinkle and if it is it can become quite invasive
          also know as Vinca major/minor

          it may be a struggle to reach the top, but once your over the hill your problems start.

            I agree with you Scarlet, and risk the pointy stick!
            The best way to propagate would be to find a stem has conveniently touched the soil and rooted itself. Then you can cut it away from the mother plant and pop it in a pot.

              No pointy stick today - I agree its Vinca major/periwinkle and that it spreads like periwinkles do
              I like it, have lots and its evergreen too
