Notes

'Heatwave Apricot Vinca' Madagascar periwinkle (Catharanthus roseus 'Heatwave Apricot Vinca') is an annual for borders, containers, ground cover, and xeriscape. It is typically grown as an annual. Frost will kill it, so set it out only after the last frost in spring. This plant likes full or part sun and dry to moist, sandy, loamy, or chalky soil. Deer and rabbits usually look elsewhere for a meal. It blooms in early to late summer and again in early to late autumn, and butterflies and bees visit the flowers.

Pairs well with Strawflower, Shrimp plant, and Papyrus.
