Vinca • Madagascar Periwinkle Culture 9

partly shaded as well as sunny locations, and do not require a 
rich soil. The plants are 1 foot high, with glossy dark green 
foliage and charming star-shaped flowers which will last a 
week if cut when in bud. Start seed indoors in January and set 
plants outdoors in April, 1 foot apart each way; they will 
bloom until fall. Give them an occasional heavy watering. 
The seed normally germinates very slowly.
