Gaura’s are commonly known as the Butterfly Bush, Bee Blossom, Angel Wings, Butterflies in the Wind or Wand Flower.
Gaura ‘Belleza’ is a gardener’s dream as it is easy to grow, is fast growing and has a long lasting display of blooms.
It is a perennial plant with green foliage and has a clumping, upright, airy habit. It is a compact grower that can reach a height of 30-45cm.
Gaura plants enjoy growing in the sun. They are tolerant of poor soils, but will give better results if planted in well drained compost enriched soil. Gaura needs regular water but once established it is water wise and hardy.
The Butterfly Bush flowers from early summer right through autumn. The stems of Gaura ‘Belleza RED’ are lined with delicate open five petaled red/ flowers that have long prominent anthers.
Gaura ‘belleza WHITE has clear white flowers which form a contrast against its attractive green foliage. Gaura blooms open a few at a time with the fading flowers falling neatly from the stems as new ones open. They are butterfly and bee magnets.
Gaura’s are trouble free, low maintenance plants. A quick cut back of old flower stems when untidy you will encourage new growth and flowers.
Plant them in masses in the garden or with other perennials in your mixed border. In containers they are a delight with their continuous flowers.
