Big Leaf Periwinkle

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.

Watering

Watering Needs:

Keep soil evenly moist
  • Light: Thrives in partial shade to full sun, but the best variegation develops in dappled light.
  • Soil: Prefers well-draining soil but adapts to a wide range of conditions.
  • Watering: Water regularly until established; afterward, it is drought-tolerant and thrives on neglect.
  • Maintenance: Extremely low-maintenance, but trim back in early spring to control spread and refresh growth.
  • Hardiness: Hardy to USDA zones 6-10, staying semi-evergreen in milder climates.
  • Additional Tips: Ideal for groundcover, erosion control, trailing over rock walls, or cascading from containers. Deer-resistant and pollinator-friendly.
