Gaura lindheimeri ‘Siskiyou Pink’
Butterfly Gaura |
USDA Zone: 5-9 |
Plant number: 1.224.200
A North American wild flower, highly valued for its long flower display in the garden. Plants bloom for many weeks, with loose sprays of deep pink flowers. In the breeze these move constantly, looking like a cloud of small butterflies. Although Gaura may not always winter reliably, plants flower for the entire summer and fall, so consider using it even as an annual in colder winter regions. Excellent in containers, and for cutting. Plants must have excellent drainage to survive the winter. Heat and drought tolerant. Note that botanists have recently reclassified and named this species Oenothera lindheimeri. Here at Heritage Perennials, we'll continue to list it under it’s more commonly familiar Latin name for now.
