A delightful selection of wand flower, its bright-white, whisker-like stamens standout against the deep rosy-pink petals. The flowers look like small pink butterflies fluttering above the red-tinted foliage where they bloom for weeks in late-summer to early-fall. This 14-16" cultivar delivers as a stunning accent or container plant. A native to southern United States, Gaura will withstand heat, humidity and drought once established. Also very attractive to bees, butterflies and hummingbirds! S/M-D PP26399
