You are right Judy! We have the same exact flowers..So now I know the name!

Gorgeous pictures!

That is one beautiful plant and photos. You are a pro at taking photos.

Icy, thanks for the visit. I had to take these pics when I saw them growing behind my daughters. I am going to try to get a root from her. Jeannie says they take off very nicely.

Theresa, thank you so much. The flowers are very pretty aren't they? They seem to require very little care too!

Take care & God bless.

So this is what it is called. I see a lot of flowers and I can't identify them... I only call them by their color. Thanks for the info.

Ruthi, don't feel bad. There are a lot of flowers I can't name, and it seems there are new ones all the time! I love them, though.

Take care & God bless.

Those creeping myrtles are the healthiest I've seen!

Oh Judy, if you are planning to grow them, be very careful of where to place them..Yes, like Jeannie said, they will take over and it's very hard to get rid off..I inherited it and dislike it with a passion!

S.S., they are at my daughters and they were there before she moved in.

Icy, maybe I should plant them in a planter then? I don't want to scare away other flowers. Thanks for the info.

They're really thriving. Looks like you're taking great care of them.

Anne, they are at my daughter's and she is not into flowers like I am so I imagine they are growing pretty much on their own.

Take care and God bless.

Gorgeous photos Judy, you captured the color perfectly. They are one of the first bloomers of spring.

I have these in one of the planters on my back lawn, they are also called Periwinkle. I see Icy has already warned you about the way they spread. They need to be contained in some way or they will take over.

Judy, my daughter's are growing so nicely and I'm going to ask her for a root, but I will follow Icy's advice and place it in a planter.

Thanks for the visit. Thanks for the other name. I like to try and learn flower names, but there are so many...
