Common periwinkle grows as a low, dense carpet formed by trailing shoots with glossy, leathery leaves. It is exceptionally well suited to planting beneath trees, in rock gardens or in containers, where it creates a picturesque effect. As the shoots spread, they form compact mats that sit beautifully at the front of borders. This plant is valued not only for its ornamental character, but also for its practical role, as it covers the ground effectively and helps to prevent soil erosion.
