I have Vinca minor growing down a large rock wall. There is a perennial bed at the top of the wall and the vinca minor is starting to grow around the larger perennial bases. Is this a problem or not?

well that depends on if you don't want the vinca in yiour other bed. I can be very invasive plant and getting it gone is a pain. I would start cutting it back away from what ever bed you don't want it in.

It has not been a problem for me.
The vine is quite shallow rooted and doesn't climb up, but spreads around, the other plants. If you don't like the look of it, then just trim it back once or twice a year.

No, I love the look of it, ladies, but was just worried whether it would choke out other plants if it grew around them. thanks for your replies!
