Each Lilac Bloom Sports a Tiny White Star!
Vinca Stardust Orchid Hybrid
Bushy plants bloom early and heavily, continuing over a long season.
This AAS winner is the most distinctive Vinca yet, with masses of early, abundant bicolored blooms!
This exciting new look in Vincas boasts rich lilac blooms that each sport a perfect white star in the center, for an unbelievably neat, uniform look in almost any setting! Early, floriferous, and long-blooming, this plant is trouble-free and glorious -- so it's no surprise that it received a 2000 AAS award!
The 1 1/2-inch blooms are so showy, with gently rounded, overlapping petals creating a very full, circular bloom that stands out above bushy foliage. The plants bloom abundantly, beginning early and continuing steadily from early summer till first frost. Even in the worst heat and blazing sun of summer, these blooms will not lose their intense colors!
Stardust Orchid blooms luxuriously despite heat and drought, making it a favorite in climates with long, hot, dry summers. A sun-lover, it's constantly in color from early summer till frost, offering lush foliage as well as plentiful blooms. Pkt is 50 seeds.
