F/U -- Vinca/Periwinkle
A good amount of people in my area use what I thought was vinca as ground cover and borders, but I know there is no pulling or planting seeds going on, so I assumed it was a perennial. The post below says vinca is an annual. What plant might I be thinking of that looks like vinca but is a perennial?

Re: F/U -- Vinca/Periwinkle
There is a perinnel vinca in our area: http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/go/1144/ (we are in zone 6b/7a...so it jjuuuuuuust survives our winter).
But, it's very invasive. I would not plant it.
eta: vinca minor is also an invasive groundcover. It's hardy to zone 4.
my vinca comes back every.single.year. Unfortunately.
Thanks, Kastle.
Maybe we could have a gardening GTG in the coming months! (And then take pictures of our gardens to make it a photo GTG, too
) I'd love to pick your brain about doing raised beds, what to grow my first year, etc. Your blog has been helpful!
I adore vinca and would be fine with it taking up our whole front yard! Okay, maybe not that far, but I do love it.
This is a great idea. I definitely would do something things differently if I was starting all over again (mostly design related though). I was thinking maybe doing a Nestie seed swap too but not sure anyone would come?!? Will post on DC board...
Re: Vinca. Just make sure you keep it trimmed from your neighbor's yard & all will be OK.
