Insights
Ideal for a smaller garden or cottage garden, C. Lilla can alternatively be planted near the front of a larger border. The leaves look particularly beautiful if positioned to allow the sunlight to shine through them and the foliage and plumes are excellent for flower arrangements in summer and autumn.
