Gaura has white and pink blooms that will replenish themselves as long as the dead blooms are picked off on this airy plant. The blooming season is quite long, lasting from early summer until the first frost.
Gaura is a 32 inch tall perennial flower growing in USDA zones 5 - 8.
As it continues to grow, it does not become dense but branches out, and is a great plant to have in your wildflower garden as it self sows its flower seeds easily. Gaura is drought hardy once established because it has a deep tap root.
In colder zones, the plant should be mulched before winter to protect the roots. If the plant freezes in the winter, just cut back to the ground and it will regrow that spring.
Sow 2 - 3 seeds per plant to begin growing your gaura plants today.
