Vinca ispartensis is a species of flowering plant first identified in Isparta Province, Turkey.[1][2] Its discovery was first published in 2015.[3] The specific epithet ispartensis indicates its place of discovery, with its etymology being 'ispart' + 'ensis'; the first half is derived from Isparta, and the latter half is Latin for "originating in".[1][4]
Vinca ispartensis is a subshrub (a type of dwarf plant with a woody base)[5] which dies back to its roots in the winter.[1] It grows in rocky soil, including that rich in minerals containing calcium carbonate.[1]
