Notes
'Mega Bloom Orchid Halo F1' vinca (Catharanthus roseus 'Mega Bloom Orchid Halo F1') is an annual for borders, containers, and pollinator gardens. It is typically grown as an annual. It is tender to cold, and the first hard frost will kill it. This plant likes full or part sun and dry to moist soil of most types. Deer and rabbits tend to browse other plants first. Butterflies and bees visit the flowers, and the plant is drought tolerant.
Pairs well with Celosia, Pineapple sage, and Penhill Watermelon dahlia.
