Catharanthus roseus, commonly known as vinca or periwinkle, is a heat- and drought-tolerant annual valued for its continuous blooms and glossy green foliage. Flowers appear in shades of pink, white, red, and purple, often with contrasting centers, providing reliable color throughout the hottest parts of the growing season. Its upright to slightly spreading habit makes it well suited for garden beds, borders, and containers.

Care Needs:
• Light: Full sun to partial sun
• Water: Allow soil to dry between waterings; prefers drier conditions once established
• Pruning: Minimal pruning needed; remove spent flowers if desired to maintain appearance
• Fertilizer: Apply a light, balanced fertilizer every 4–6 weeks during the growing season; avoid over-fertilizing
