Description

The Madagascar Periwinkle, also known as Sadabahar, is a dependable and colorful addition to any sunny garden. This hardy plant features glossy green leaves and star-shaped flowers that bloom in shades of pink, rose, and white. It thrives in hot, humid weather and remains vibrant from summer until the first frost. Because it handles heat and dry spells so well, it is a perfect choice for beginners or busy gardeners who want constant color with very little work.

You can grow Sadabahar in garden beds, borders, or patio containers. It reaches about one to two feet in height and spreads just as wide, creating a neat, mounded look. The plant is self-cleaning, meaning you do not need to remove old flowers to keep it blooming. While it is a perennial in tropical climates, most people grow it as a tough annual that resists pests and common garden animals like deer and rabbits. Just give it plenty of sunlight and well-draining soil to see it flourish.
