This color variation makes it a versatile choice for designers looking to create a bold statement or enhance color schemes in garden designs.
The 'Blackberry' Vinca Rosea is a superb accent plant that complements a variety of color schemes. It pairs beautifully with Americana themes and works harmoniously with blue, pink, white, or lavender flowers. Its deep, rich flower color contrasts beautifully with its deep green, shiny leaves, creating a visually appealing backdrop that enhances the garden's overall aesthetic.

The 2-inch flowers, combined with the plant’s glossy foliage, create a rich and luxurious look that is both low-maintenance and resilient.
