Not your average groundcover, Big Leaf Periwinkle ‘Maculata’ turns up the brightness with striking golden-yellow splashes across its broad, glossy green leaves. This vigorous, fast-spreading perennial creeps and trails its way through shady beds, rock gardens, and borders, softening hard edges and adding a painterly touch to the landscape. Come spring and summer, periwinkle-blue flowers emerge, dotting the golden foliage with a subtle yet striking contrast. Tough, low-maintenance, and adaptable, this variety is ideal for erosion control, filling in gaps, or cascading over walls and containers with effortless charm.
