Vinca commonly called Periwinkle or Never Done originated in Madagascar and comes from the Catharanthus family; it is different from Catharanthus pusillus which originated in India and Sri Lanka.
Periwinkle is now grown throughout Europe, China, North and South America and the Caribbean successfully. It is known for its attractive glossy, green foliage and flowers. Over the years, new hybrids were developed in amazing colours, some with red or white dots on the centre.
