Vinca minor, commonly known as periwinkle or creeping myrtle, is a perennial or subshrub in the family Apocynaceae. Native to Europe and parts of Asia, it is often used as a ground cover due to its dense, mat-forming growth habit. The plant produces small, violet-blue flowers and glossy, evergreen leaves. It can enter a dormancy period during the winter months.

DETAILS
Onderhoudsinstructies
Vinca minor is relatively easy to care for. It prefers moderate temperatures and can tolerate a range of light conditions, from indirect bright light to partial shade. The plant thrives in moderate humidity and should be watered when the soil partially dries out. It is adaptable to various conditions but performs best in temperate climates.Bodem
Vinca minor prefers well-draining loam soil that is rich in organic matter. The soil should be kept moderately moist but not waterlogged. Good drainage is essential to prevent root rot.Kunstmest
A balanced fertilizer with an N-P-K ratio of 10-10-10 can be applied in the spring and mid-summer to support healthy growth. Fertilize sparingly to avoid overfeeding.Verpotten
Repot Vinca minor every 2-3 years or when it outgrows its container. Choose a slightly larger pot with good drainage. Gently remove the plant from its current pot, loosen the roots, and place it in the new pot with fresh soil.Voortplanting
Vinca minor can be easily propagated through stem cuttings or division. Take cuttings in the spring or early summer, dip them in rooting hormone, and plant them in a well-draining soil mix. Keep the soil moist until roots develop. Division can be done in the spring or fall by separating the plant into smaller sections and replanting them.Snoeien
Prune Vinca minor in the spring to control its growth and shape. Remove any dead or damaged stems and trim back overgrown areas to encourage new growth. Regular pruning helps maintain a tidy appearance.Toxiciteit
Vinca minor is toxic to pets and humans if ingested. All parts of the plant contain alkaloids that can cause symptoms such as vomiting, diarrhea, and low blood pressure. Keep the plant out of reach of children and pets.BRENG EEN REVOLUTIE TEWEEG IN UW PLANTENVERZORGING
