I am noted for giving dignity to flowers that are classified as wild and/or invasive. This flower known as Vinca major is one such but I do not find anything wrong with it that it should be discarded the moment it shows up.
It is also called California weed and I understand all out efforts are made out there to eradicate this ‘weed’ fully. You can read more about it here

But Vinca Major is there to stay at Solitaire. We also have the white colour

We should keep in check the growth of these invasive plants but never get rid of them. Do you agree?

Yes

No

It depends where you are whether it is an invasive weed or not. I don’t have this flower.
It has dignity in my garden more because it was there in my mother’s garden
Every good reason to keep it, for I would keep it too.
I have had this flower in my garden before and it wasn’t a weed. Unless it is a different variety perhaps. It was sold as a plant. Very pretty color. My honeysuckle can get invasive but I keep it cut back.
That is what I understood reading through some sites . I wanted to know its name
This plant isn’t a weed here. I see it cultivated in the park and other places.
