This beautiful flower is visiting our garden for the first time this year. I don’t know the name of the flower, do you?
I don’t know much of flowers names, I just think they are lovely.
Denna blomma har dykt upp i vår trädgård för första gången. Vet inte namnet på den, vet ni?
Anna
It’s a Myrtle (Vinca minor) 🙂

I thought it was vinca as well, but vinca seems to have 5 petals, and this has 6. https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=vinca&rlz=1C1SFXN_enGB503GB541&espv=2&biw=1280&bih=909&site=webhp&tbm=isch&imgil=jIwe6R9lmD8UPM%253A%253BfxDVrQ9jcnTWqM%253Bhttp%25253A%25252F%25252Fen.wikipedia.org%25252Fwiki%25252FVinca_major&source=iu&pf=m&fir=jIwe6R9lmD8UPM%253A%252CfxDVrQ9jcnTWqM%252C_&usg=__W6FLcAZasXafBxpwqEK4kZUz6h4%3D&dpr=1&ved=0CJcBEMo3&ei=lKxRVdbWFomRsgHGvIGwDA#imgrc=jIwe6R9lmD8UPM%253A%3BfxDVrQ9jcnTWqM%3Bhttp%253A%252F%252Fupload.wikimedia.org%252Fwikipedia%252Fcommons%252F8%252F82%252FVinca_major_NS.jpg%3Bhttp%253A%252F%252Fen.wikipedia.org%252Fwiki%252FVinca_major%3B1932%3B1281

It sure looks like a Vinca besides the six petals.

Maybe it’s a special Anna-Vinca with six petals 🙂

Does it trail along the ground. If so, it’s a periwinkle

It is definitely a periwinkle which is a name for a Vinca – so I would agree with Darwinontherocks.

My flower has six petals and when I google Vinca they have five. Does it matter or is it still a Vinca?

Sorry Anna – I don’t know – ours all have 5
