Periwinkle:

The Periwinkle, Vinca minor, is also known as Trailing Myrtle, Dwarf Periwinkle and Creeping Myrtle. This species of Periwinkle is one of the most popular and widely used ground covers. Trailing stems with smooth, evergreen leaves (to 1.5" long) root at the nodes as they go along the ground and quickly spread to form an attractive ground cover. Effective on slopes or banks to stabilize soils and prevent erosion. This evergreen perennial is similar in all ways to Vinca Major except the flower is a little smaller.
