Periwinkle, also known as Lesser Periwinkle, is a delicate and enchanting flower that has captivated artists and nature enthusiasts alike. In the world of art nouveau patterns they can often featured for their graceful curves and vibrant hues. The intricate details of a periwinkle petal surface can be observed under a scanning electron microscope (SEM), revealing its mesmerizing texture. In old woodlands, such as Vinca minor, the Lesser Periwinkle thrives amidst ancient trees, adding a touch of elegance to the forest floor. Along sandy shores, trails left by the Edible periwinkle (Littorina littorea) create beautiful patterns on rocks, showcasing nature's artistic hand. The Variegated common periwinkle (Vinca minor Variegata) adds an extra layer of visual interest with its striking variegated leaves. Meanwhile, in faraway lands like Madagascar, the Catharanthus roseus or Madagascar periwinkle displays delicate white flowers that gracefully sway in outdoor gardens. Even centuries ago, periwinkles found their way into various forms of art. In Livre des Eschecs D'Amour (vellum), Apollo is depicted killing Python with a backdrop adorned by these charming blooms. Jacques Fabian Gautier Dagoty's Collection of Usual Curious and Foreign Plants from 1767 showcases The Periwinkle of Java among other exotic flora. Not only celebrated in art but also on stage; Mr William Parsons portrayed the character "Periwinkle" in Susannah Centlivres' A Bold Stroke for a Wife at Covent Garden Theatre in 1762 - surely captivating audiences with his portrayal. Chromolithos featuring vibrant renderings of this lovely flower have become collectibles cherished by many admirers over time. And let us not forget about the seaside where diverse marine life finds its home - including our beloved perwinkles, adding a touch of beauty to the coastal ecosystem.
