 Help! I am having some issues here with Vinca (aka periwinkle (Catharanthus G. Don) .

I have a nice patch of it next to my pool and it is infested with
clover (Trifolium L.) I've been pulling the clover (Trifolium L.) but I can't get ahead of it. Any
suggestions? Is there a specific herbicide that will kill clover and
not Vinca?

Thanks

Dean

 You mean vinca can be killed with a herbicide?! Just kidding (a little).
I've tried to eliminate our vinca from unwanted spots with herbicides and
found it to be pretty resilient. My guess is careful spraying will take out
the clover with little damage to the vinca.
