Vinca 'Illumination'
Vinca ‘Illumination’ is a stable, variegated selection of periwinkle with golden centres and green margins. Foliage starts out a chartreuse colour and changes to a rich golden colour and finally matures to a cream colour. Flowering tends to be intermittent throughout the season following a flush of blooms in the spring. The blue flowers contrast well against the foliage.
