| Periwinkle; Myrtle | Vinca minor | |  | An extremely popular evergreen groundcover. ‘Dart's Blue’ forms a dense mat of glossy dark green leaves, studded with light-blue flowers in spring. Very shade tolerant, the leaves will sometimes scorch in too much sun. Tolerates dry shade once plants are established. Stems root into the ground readily, and the new plants that form may be easily moved to a new location in spring or early fall. Mowing the patch low after blooming every couple of years will help to keep it thick. Plant 4 to 10 plants per square yard. Differs from the straight species or ‘Bowles’ Variety’ in having slightly larger leaves and blooms, and flowers in a softer tone of blue. Reported to have improved disease resistance. | 6A-S |  |  |  |  |  |

| | | |  | This new Vinca has been two decades in the making, the disease-fighting technology developed for it is so revolutionary that it's actually being patented! Until now, Vinca has been prey to "sudden death" in humid, rainy, or very hot climates. Now the cure has been discovered, and Cora™ is ready to thrive in the most damp and moist conditions without turning a petal! It's a whole new day for this lovely, long-blooming plant! | 9D-S |  | |  |  |  |
