Vinca minor inhabits much of North America. The name was probably derived from a Latin word meaning "to bind." Vinca minor is commonly known as dwarf periwinkle, creeping myrtle, or death myrtle. It does contain toxic substances, but so do many other common ornamental plants. Nevertheless, vinca is toxic if ingested.

Certainly, as a ground cover, it is very effective for erosion control. Vinca prefers moist soil in partial shade to full shade but will also tolerate sun and drought. It is deer resistant. Periwinkle does well in shallow soil, even where tree roots render it difficult to cultivate.

If planting it for erosion control, try to mitigate the water flow until the plants are established, otherwise the water might dislodge them.

Periwinkle can be planted any time of year. Even so, you should water occasionally until the plants become established to avoid drought stress. Maintenance is minimal. Periwinkle has few pest and disease problems and tolerates poor soil.

Because it is so common, folks often overlook it, unless it’s found growing where they don’t want it. As I’ve often said, “it does what a ground cover is supposed to do; it covers ground.” Periwinkle is popular precisely because it is so effective, attractive, and requires practically no maintenance.

Plants in 3-1/2 inch pots are the right choice for planting small to medium-size areas for quicker coverage.

Wonderful
Super comfy and easy on and off, yet stylish imo! I could walk miles in these as a 56 yo and have worn them for three years! I hope they never stop making them. The only tweek I would suggest is to cover the footbed with leather or suede not cloth so they would last longer!

Great option for a great price
Size: 7.5, Color: Black
I love these sandals. They are well made, true to size and soft suede. They are lightweight and feel just like my UGG goldenstar sandals. (These are not as adjustable, so if you have narrow or wide feet, these may not be for you) These a great value for the money, especially for medium width feet. The strap across the toe is not adjustable, but fit my feet just fine. The ankle strap was a good length for me. And the Velcro is strong. These sandals are a great value for the money. I will probably start looking into kookaburra before I rush to buy the more expensive ones now.

Quality, good looking shoes!
Size: 8.5, Color: Green
Absolutely perfect fit, design, and color. I'm so pleased with these sandals and as always with this brand, I am not in anyway disappointed. These shoes are so comfortable right out of the box. They clean up very nicely, and last forever. I am so glad I got these before they were sold out.

UGG Comfort Without the Premium Price
Size: 9, Color: Beige, Size: 9, Color: Beige
These sandals are super cute and incredibly comfortable. They have that classic UGG look and feel, but at a much more approachable price point. The footbed is cushioned and supportive, making them easy to wear for extended periods. The straps feel secure without rubbing, and the overall construction feels solid and well made. They’re lightweight but still have a sturdy sole with good traction. They pair effortlessly with casual outfits and have that relaxed, elevated vibe UGG is known for—just without the higher price tag. A great value for both style and comfort.
