This North American native brings a light, graceful presence to gardens and containers, beautifully revealing a surprisingly resilient nature. 

Pollinators and gardeners alike are drawn to Gaura’s delicate looking blooms, which appear in shades of red, pink, white and beguiling bicolor flowers from early summer through frost. Held on slender, wand like stems, the flowers magically float and sway with every passing breeze. Fine, lance shaped foliage provides a subtle backdrop, ranging from fresh green to variegated or red-tinged.

Breeding advances have helped Wand flower keep its easy, natural movement while offering a more refined, garden-ready habit. Compact selections like Belleza™ Dark Pink and ‘Sparkle White’ create tidy, well-mannered containers with strong shelf appeal, while taller varieties such as ‘Siskiyou Pink’ and ‘Whirling Butterflies’ bring effortless movement and charm to the landscape.

Culture Notes: 

Once established, Gaura tolerates high and low temperatures, but not wet feet. Healthy growth demands good drainage. Too-rich soil leads to leggy, floppy growth.

Gardeners, it’s tap-rooted, so transplant with care.
