Cora® Cascade XDR White Catharanthus is a named F1 Catharanthus selection with white flowers, identified by Syngenta under product code 70071694. The official profile describes its mounding, spreading habit and late-spring-to-summer flowering for this selection. ### Selection and use This plant belongs to the Cora® Cascade XDR offering; its color and product code distinguish it from other Cora selections. Syngenta lists Catharanthus for landscape and container plantings, including baskets and mixed displays. The XDR designation reflects Syngenta's disease screening and does not mean the plant is immune. ### Growing conditions The exact product profile recommends Full Sun and Part Shade. North Carolina State Extension describes Catharanthus roseus as a warm-season plant that can be perennial in the warmest climates and is commonly grown as an annual in colder areas. It recommends moist, well-drained soil; use local seasonal conditions to guide watering and planting time.

Syngenta lists USDA hardiness zone 11 for this offering; elsewhere, treat it as a seasonal annual unless protected from cold. Remove spent or damaged growth as needed to maintain the display.
