Tattoo Raspberry Vinca is a compact annual with an upright mounded habit and lance like dark green foliage. The flattened 5-petaled flowers are a vibrant raspberry-blush with a faint look of hand streaked dark purple on the petals and black around the center that bloom from late spring throughout summer. Flowers best in full sun and rich well-drained soils.
