Vinca minor 'White Power' is one of a number of more recent introductions that seem to provide modest but useful improvements over older varieties. 'White Power' makes a dense patch of glossy deep green foliage and masses of good sized flowers of clear white that seems to provide a bolder display than the older white flowered forms.

Most forms of Vinca minor will provide a good, low growing, evergeen carpet under trees, shrubs, hedges and even bamboos with the benefit of a winter and spring flowering period.  If they get too untidy they can be cut back hard in late winter.
