Vinca minor 'Bowles'
Choose Bowles Periwinkle for filling shaded beds under trees where turf struggles; it knits together fast and stays green, but only use it where you can keep its spread inside a defined bed.
| Category | Grade | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Landscape Impact | B+ | It gives shaded beds a clean, finished look with spring flowers and steady foliage. |
| Growth Rate | A | It spreads quickly once established, which is useful for coverage but requires boundaries. |
| Maintenance | B | It is not fussy, but runners should be trimmed where they move past the intended bed. |
| Deer Resistance | A- | Deer usually pass this by, since the foliage deters browsing, though no plant is completely immune where pressure is severe. |
| Small Space Fit | C+ | It can work in small beds only if edging or routine trimming keeps it contained. |
| Screening Value | F | This is a groundcover, not a plant for privacy or visual screening. |
At PGNE, we'd typically recommend Bowles Periwinkle for contained shade beds, not open woodland edges. Give it a clear border and check runners a few times a season.

Bought 8-10 ft and all were barely 8 if you count the container. Trees are thin and lots of brown branches and broken branches due you thrown in box truck no wrapping or anything. Hoping they survive and thicken up quick…
I went up there today from Quincy MA to pick up two Blue Wichita Junipers and they were absolutely beautiful. Thank you, Chris and everybody from Pro Growers of New England!

The plants are beautiful and all 13 were consistent in height and width. And at a fraction of the cost of other garden centers. Having the team that delivered them do the planting was one of the best values I can think of. They did a great job from start to finish and even helped me with my watering system which they didn’t have to do!
Very nice
Guys installed for me as well
Great job
Huge selection and fast delivery. All plants arrived in great condition.
Great prices and Unbelievable selection of big and small trees, shrubs, and flowering perennials! Nicest folks to work with. And local delivery is awesome! First time purchasing from this company, , and have already told friends, neighbors and family. The owner Chris is professional, knowledgeable, and yet laid back in a most friendly way. Mags in the office will help with any details. My all time BEST garden purchase EVER!
