Variegated Vinca Vine Live Plants | Vinca major 'Variegata'

Bring a soft cascade of green-and-cream foliage to your container garden with variegated vinca vine. Vinca major 'Variegata', also called greater periwinkle or bigleaf periwinkle, features deep-green leaves edged with creamy white and lighter green. Its trailing stems spill over hanging baskets and planters, adding leafy texture around upright plants.

Foliage, Flowers & Garden Uses

• Variegated leaves: Green centers with pale margins provide interest beyond the flowering season.
• Spring flowers: Small blue to lavender-purple blooms have five petals arranged in a pinwheel shape. Flowering varies with growing conditions.
• Trailing habit: A useful accent for hanging baskets, patio pots and mixed containers.
• Perennial foliage: Can remain evergreen where climate and growing conditions allow.

Planting & Care

• Choose a location with partial shade or bright, filtered light.
• Use well-draining soil and containers with drainage holes.
• Water after planting and regularly while roots establish. Keep soil from becoming waterlogged.
• Trim trailing stems as needed to maintain the shape of a basket or planter.
• Monitor spreading stems and prevent them from rooting outside the intended planting area.

Important Planting & Safety Notes

Vinca major can spread aggressively and is considered invasive in some regions. Check local planting guidance before using it as an outdoor groundcover; containers offer a more manageable way to enjoy its trailing foliage.

Not intended for consumption. Keep plants away from children and pets that may chew or ingest foliage.
