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.

These Vinca rosea hybrids seem to like the soil etc in our garden.
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,
