I am reposting because it is not appearing for me. Apols if it has been
seen twice.



It will take over anywhere it can get its runners to, with a fair
hope of rooting. And they can run a couple of yards before rooting.
Vinca minor is less agressive, but still invasive.

Thanks, Nick Something there to think on. A couple of yards eh? wow)
It is only the borders I have the problem with because a few years ago
(because of our work situation) we did away with the lawn area and laid
decorative gravel and use tubs for decoration. I suppose we could do that
with the borders but I do like some soil and flowers and so am loathe to
cover that with gravel and Jake's suggestion seems to be a good one. We
have raised beds at the end with fruit trees but the paths separate that
area from the borders. How would that area cope if Vinca did spread there?
Could it kill the trees? If yes, or even if not, can you suggest something
else to sow into the border that will not take much care and be safer?
