# This is Carlita 🩷. I got her from Walmart about a month ago and it…

_Pubblicato da Kirsten Lena🩷 il 2025-06-24_

This is Carlita 🩷. I got her from Walmart about a month ago and it said she was periwinkle. I keep her on my porch with my other plants and the last week she’s started fading around the edges and I have seen two small holes on her leaves. I’m wondering could this be from pests or am I not meeting her light needs.

It’s a periwinkle, vinca, based on my plant ID software. It should put out beautiful flowers. The light edges are a feature.😁 Make sure the pot is not too big. The diameter of the new pot should only be 2 inches wider than the previous pot to avoid root rot. 🪴🍀
