Čechrava čínská Pumila vnáší do zahrady život v době, kdy většina ostatních stínomilných rostlin již odkvétá. Tato drobná, kompaktní varieta je ceněná pro svůj pozdní termín kvetení na přelomu srpna a září, kdy se její nadýchané laty zbarví do sytě růžové až fialové barvy. Přirozeně se vyskytuje v oblastech Číny a Mongolska, což z ní činí mimořádně otužilou rostlinu, která hravě zvládá i tuhé mrazy. V zahradě nejlépe vynikne jako lem stinných záhonů nebo ve skupinové výsadbě pod vyššími keři, kde její členité listy vytvářejí zajímavou strukturu po celou sezónu. Květenství lze využít nejen do čerstvých letních kytic, ale také se výborně hodí k sušení, protože si i v suchém stavu zachovávají svůj tvar a část barevnosti. Jde o vitální rostlinu, která se snadno pěstuje a kromě občasné zálivky v horkých dnech nevyžaduje žádnou speciální péči.
