Periwinkle, also known as Vinca, is not recommended for shade gardens in Louisiana due to its preference for full sun to partial shade and its heat tolerance. While it can grow in some shaded areas, it thrives better in brighter conditions where it can receive adequate sunlight. In contrast, Coleus, Impatiens, and Begonias are all well-suited for shade gardens, as they flourish in low light and can tolerate the humidity and moist conditions often found in shaded areas of Louisiana gardens. This makes them more appropriate choices for creating vibrant and healthy shade garden displays.
