Notes
'Cora Cascade Cherry' Madagascar periwinkle (Catharanthus roseus 'Cora Cascade Cherry') is an annual for borders, containers, and accents. It is typically grown as an annual. It is tender to cold, and the first hard frost will kill it. This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. Deer and rabbits tend to pass it by. Butterflies and bees visit the flowers in early to late summer and again in early to late autumn.
Pairs well with Impatiens, Spartacus dahlia, and Citronella grass.
