📋 Product Description
Vinca minor 'Ralph Shugert', commonly known as the Variegated Lesser Periwinkle, is an eye-catching evergreen ground cover renowned for its glossy, dark green leaves edged with creamy white and its delicate violet-blue flowers. This low-growing plant is perfect for adding colour and texture to shady areas of the garden, where it forms a dense mat of foliage.
Additional Information:
-
Charming Flowers: 'Ralph Shugert' produces charming violet-blue, star-shaped flowers from late spring through to early autumn. The blooms contrast beautifully against the variegated foliage, creating a striking display that lasts for months.
-
Extended Blooming Season: This variety offers a long flowering period, typically blooming from April to September, bringing consistent colour to shady and semi-shady garden areas.
-
Attractive Variegated Foliage: The evergreen leaves of 'Ralph Shugert' are dark green with a distinct creamy-white edge, adding interest and brightness to the garden year-round. The foliage remains attractive even when the plant is not in bloom, providing a beautiful backdrop to other plants.
-
Low-Growing Habit: Growing to a height of 10-15 cm and spreading up to 60-90 cm, this Vinca is an excellent choice for ground cover. It forms a dense, weed-suppressing carpet that is ideal for difficult areas under trees or on slopes.
-
Shade Tolerant: 'Ralph Shugert' thrives in partial shade to full shade, making it ideal for planting under trees, along shaded borders, or in woodland gardens. It can also tolerate some sun, provided the soil remains moist.
-
Well-Drained Soil: This Vinca prefers moist, well-drained soil but is adaptable to a range of soil types, including poor, dry soils. Once established, it is quite drought-tolerant and requires minimal watering.
