Vinca 'Pacifica Lipstick': Bold, Lipstick-Pink for High-Impact Color

Vinca 'Pacifica Lipstick'

Vibrant, true lipstick-pink flowers make Vinca 'Pacifica Lipstick' impossible to ignore. This Pacifica series cultivar delivers high-voltage color on the same tough, compact plants (8–12 inches tall, 1 foot spread) that have made the series a landscaper favorite. It's the go-to choice when you need unapologetic pink that reads from across the yard.

Standout Features

The blooms are a saturated, blue-based pink—classic "lipstick" shade—with a small white eye. Each 1.5–2 inch flower has the pinwheel form characteristic of vincas. Plants form a dense, uniform mound of glossy, dark green foliage that stays clean and disease-free. Early flowering and continuous bloom through frost make it a reliable workhorse for high-visibility areas.

Cultural Needs

  • Light: Full sun to partial shade.
  • Height: 8–12 inches.
  • Spread: 10–12 inches (1 foot or less).
  • Soil: Well-drained; adaptable to various conditions.
  • Water: Low once established. Very drought-tolerant.

Garden Uses

Use 'Pacifica Lipstick' for bold edging, in breast cancer awareness plantings, or as a high-impact accent in mixed containers. Pair with white, purple, or chartreuse for maximum contrast. The compact habit suits formal plantings, window boxes, and small patio containers. Mass on sunny slopes for erosion control with a pop of color.

Simple Care

No deadheading. Slow-release fertilizer at planting. Water at base. Excellent drainage required. Space 8–10 inches apart. Deer resistant.
