Does anyone know how to get a starter from a vica plant??? A friend of mine has a beautiful vica plant, and I want some of it, but we didn't know which part to snip to get the starter for mine.
Any ideas???
Thanks!

If you mean vinca then just pull some out of the ground and transplant them somewhere else. Vinca are hardy fast growing and very shallow rooted. However, be aware that they will take over and end up places you don't want them. They are impossible to get rid of once established. I know because they are all over my yard, in my garden beds, in the play yard, around my air conditioner...you get the point. Good luck.
Here are some pictures of Vinca for comparison.

If you mean vinca plant, I don't believe you get starters from a plant. Go to a nursery and you can buy the little 2-3 oz starter plants for like 90 cents or so. Try Home Depot, they have tons.

Just cut a stem off and take some of the bottom leaves off and place in water. They are fine in pots but placed in the ground they take over. They have so many shoots coming up, they are hard to keep control over.
