| I just recently bought a few vinca vines and put them in a real sunny location in the house. All of the sudden the leaves started turning brown and falling off. I am assuming I am over watering it? I have done alot of reasearch on them and I know they are getting plenty of light.
Any suggestions? |

| Vincas are one of those plants that like to be outside, they really do not like to be inside. They like full sun to partial shade which even in the house cannot be duplicated without skylights. I would check for spider mites, and aphids, scale has also been known to love vinca. |

| I have 3 different vinca vines...the other two have been in my house for months and are doing very well. I have a bad habit of overwatering, so I will back off of my watering. thanks for the input |

| My vinca vine (indoor houseplant) has little black specks on the leaves (looks like dirt, but it's not). There are no signs of aphids on the stems or under the leaves. What can this be? I recently re-potted into a larger pot because the local nursery suggested it might be root bound. |
