Notes
'Cora Cascade Lavender with Eye' Madagascar periwinkle (Catharanthus roseus 'Cora Cascade Lavender with Eye') is an annual for borders, containers, and accents. It is typically grown as an annual. Frost will kill it, so set it out only after the last frost in spring. This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. It is not a favorite of deer or rabbits, though hungry ones will eat almost anything. Butterflies and bees visit the blooms in early to late summer.
Pairs well with Impatiens, Spartacus dahlia, and Citronella grass.
