My periwinkle is withering on one stem then the next, etc. I was wondering if I could soak it with Consen Triple Action 20.
I have had that happen to some of my plants and I moved them and it helped. It could be to sunny of a spot or maybe it's the soil
I just moved into a house in Rhode Island that has periwinkle in the flower beds. I am not familiar with periwinkle and am wondering if it is safe to plant my tulips dahlias and other flowers in with it. Does periwinkle choke out other flowers?

How do I control the weeds around the periwinkle without harming the periwinkle itself? I have a lot of sun in some areas. When I plant new periwinkle plants, it doesn't take-off and expand.
You have a few different options: you can hand pull the weeds out of the ground by the roots, lay mulch around the periwinkle to discourage weeds, paint the foliage of weed plants with a glyphosate herbicide or apply a pre-emergent herbicide to the periwinkle bed.
