Description
Fast growing annual vinca with very dark purple blossoms Height reaches 14 - 16 inches and the width is only 10 - 12 inches Considered an upright vinca or periwinkle plant Grows best in full sun and is considered deer resistant Sow 2 - 3 seeds per plant and keep seeds moist until germination. See specific planting directions for indoor or outdoor planting. Periwinkle (Catharanthus Roseus Tattoo Blackberry) - Beautiful, dark purple blooms adorn this upright vinca. It doesn't matter if it is planted in the garden, the border, or a container, it is sure to attact attention during the entire growing season. Durable and very heat tolerant. Vinca is best grown in full sun areas or areas that get at least 6 hours of direct sunlight a day. Soil should be well drained and these drought tolerant plants do not need a lot of water so be careful not to overwater. Season long blooms bursting with color from late Spring to late Summer for gardens and containers. Grow Vinca seeds indoors 4 - 6 weeks before the last frost is expected. Cover the Vinca Periwinkle seeds with 1/4 inch of potting mix, spray with water to moisten and press down lightly. Vinca flower seeds will not germinate in any sort of light, so cover trays or containers with a black plastic sheet or a newspaper. Lift the plastic or newspaper regularly to moisten by misting. Once Periwinkle seedlings emerge, they need bright light. At about 2 - 3 inches tall, transplant the strongest plants into individual pots. The plants can be moved outside once the temperature is consistently above 65F degrees. Directly sowing seeds is not recommended, but if you choose to direct sow, follow the same steps as above. Wait until danger of frost has passed and temperatures are consistently warm, and prepare the soil well so that it is light and fine.
