Description

Periwinkles galore! If you’re looking to easily enhance your garden and love shades of green, yellow, purple and blue then this is the very collection for you!

Each periwinkle boasts varying evergreen shades of foliage that are complemented beautifully with the violet blue complexions of the flowers. Vinca minor 'Illumination' features a delicate blend of green and yellow leaves whilst Vinca minor 'La Grave' boasts intricate white linings shaped like stars in the centre of their petals. Vinca 'Ralph Shugert' provides the largest size of flowers so you can fully indulge in the beautiful violet blue tones of their petals.

Flowers will bloom in spring and flourish until early autumn, ensuring there’s months of vibrant colours for you to enjoy. Even during the winter months when the flowers have withered, the evergreen foliage will still shine brightly and provide much needed life during those subdued days.

Each periwinkle in this collection will attract a range of pollinators as bees and butterflies adore the purple petals and abundance of nectar.

As these periwinkles are all of the lesser variety, there’s no need to worry about them becoming invasive. They’re compact, neat and will keep weeds at bay when used as ground cover.

Supplied as three established plants in 9cm pots, ready for planting.

Delivery Information

Please allow us 3-5 working days to dispatch your order. Pre-ordered items will be sent as soon as possible after the date quoted and we'll generally ship your entire order with your pre-ordered items. When your order is dispatched, we'll send you another email with details of how to track it.

Most orders are sent on a fully-tracked courier service with Yodel. To avoid perishable items being stuck at depots and deteriorating, no signature is required, and our courier is asked to leave your order in a safe place on your property.

We'll send a tracking link when we dispatch your order, so you know when its due to arrive. Please note, once delivered we cannot be held responsible for loss or theft from your property. If you have any specific delivery instructions, please let us know - there's an option to enter a short message for the courier at the checkout.

Smaller, lighter, single-item orders may be sent through the post with Royal Mail - in which case no tracking is available.

Our experienced nursery team will always send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive when you plant them, so although most plants are very tough and will not be affected by all but the most extreme frosts or heatwaves, we avoid dispatching the most perishable plants if extreme weather is forecast, or over Bank Holiday weekends.

Please note, we cannot guarantee delivery on a certain day or time. Delivery to outlying postcode areas may take 1-2 days longer, dependent on your location.
