Thanks for the post. I did not know that there were hybrids in Vinca sp. You get the odour when you take it close and try to smell it.

Some of my neighbours complain that they emit a foul odour which is a nuisance in the ground floor apartments. Is this possible? One neighbour complained that it was not orderly - having grown out of its alloted space. I was thrilled that SOMETHING was flourishing in our garden and not going into the usual wither -and -die routine! Cheers, Padmini Raghavan.
