Vinca minor 'Gertrude Jekyll' is an excellent and popular evergreen ground cover plant that is highly valued for its refined and elegant appearance. This variety is distinguished by its compact growth and beautiful, pure white flowers, making it the ideal choice for filling shady gardens and creating a calm, fresh look in borders and underplanting.

Features: 'Gertrude Jekyll' retains its deep green leaves throughout the year, providing continuous structure and color in the garden. It is very hardy, robust, and has the great advantage of helping to suppress weeds by forming a dense carpet. Thanks to its refined character and white flowers, it is a low-maintenance choice that fits perfectly into both classic and modern garden designs and thrives even in the most difficult shaded areas.

Appearance icon Appearance

Vinca minor 'Gertrude Jekyll' is characterized by its relatively small, glossy leaves and very rich flowering of bright white, star-shaped flowers in the spring. The plant grows slightly more compactly than the standard Vinca minor, forming a very even and tight carpet of about 10 to 15 centimeters high. The white flowers stand out beautifully against the dark green background of the foliage. Tip: For an extra dense mat, you can cut the longest runners a little shorter in spring, which will stimulate the plant to produce more side shoots from the heart of the plant.

Location icon Location

This white periwinkle is an ideal candidate for a spot in partial shade to shade, where its white flowers provide a beautiful bright spot. 'Gertrude Jekyll' has few soil requirements and grows well in almost any well-drained soil type. It is an excellent plant for covering shady areas, as border planting along paths, or as a soothing base under taller shrubs.

Water requirement icon Water Demand

The water requirements of 'Gertrude Jekyll' are average. After planting, it is essential to moisten the soil regularly so that the plant can establish itself well in the new soil. Once settled, this ground cover is very robust; it retains its fresh, vital appearance best when the soil remains slightly moist during hot summer months, allowing the plant to maintain its vigorous growth.
