FAQ 

Does the flower vinca come back every year?

Typically, vinca is an annual growing plant that only lives for one year but it can come back from self-sown seed.

Why are my vincas turning yellow and dying?

If you have checked the soils and they are not overwatered or underwatered, another cause is a lack of iron or nitrogen in the soil. To control this problem you should add nitrogen and iron-rich fertilizers to the soil.

Do vincas need to be deadheaded?

Deadheading for vinca is not necessary as it is a self-cleaning plant.
