Ivy with blue flowers???

[dannyo]

I dug up several starts of this ivy from my aunt's lawn and planted them around some of the trees in my yard. I have no idea what it is called and was hoping someone could help me out. Some of these plants had flowers on them when I moved them but they are gone now. They seem to have taken the move very well and are starting to grow new runners, I'm very happy with them.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

This is called Trailing Vinca. It is a wonderful ground cover. It also comes in a variegated variety too.

It is a good looking start.

I love Vinca minor. Be sure to keep your transplants moist the first year. We don't have the invasive problems in our area that some do.
