Will wintergreen and vinca minor do well in a shared planting bed under an oak tree?

The vinca minor will love the shade of the oak and could become very aggressive. The wintergreen may struggle in the dry shade and dry up and die. If is does survive the more hardy vinca will grow right on top of the wintergreen. Keep growing, Marianne Binetti
