Heat- and drought-loving favorite | Colorful over a long summer season
AAS Winner 2003This deep rosy-scarlet flower holds its intensity even in the midsummer heat that bleaches or fades other blooms. Compact, well-branched, and wonderfully indifferent to heat and drought, Jaio Dark Red Vinca is the vinca youll want for the blazing patio, the sun-drenched poolside tubs, and the sizzling-hot garden.Jaio Dark Red Vinca blooms continuously all summer, through the worst weather Mother Nature has to offer. And the old blooms remain on the plants, vibrant for weeks, so that a fully-blooming plant is simply awash in rich color. The blooms are about 2 inches across, flanked by long, pointed, glossy leaves of deep green. Showy and stylish.Jaio Dark Red Vinca reaches a foot high and wide, making it equally well suited for container or garden growth.

Jaio Dark Red Vinca blooms just 10 weeks after sowing, so you can expect a very long season of color.Jaio Scarlet Eye is an All-America Selections Bedding Plant Winner for its unique color, bloom strength, and compact, uniform habit.
