Seattle Cut back vinca

If you’ve noticed your vinca ground cover in Seattle becoming overgrown or unruly, you’re not alone. This hardy plant can quickly spread and become invasive, leading to a cluttered garden space. Fortunately, cutting back vinca is a simple solution that not only enhances your yard’s appearance but also ensures a safer and eco-friendly environment. By keeping vinca trimmed, you can improve your home’s curb appeal, reduce maintenance, and create a healthier outdoor space.
