In the last decade, gaura has skyrocketed to popularity among gardeners. The pink-tinged, white flowers are reminiscent of butterflies perched on tall stems.
Gaura lindheimeri is easy to grow and drought-tolerant. It's especially nice with wildflowers and ornamental grasses. It blooms from early summer to fall. Hardy in zones 5-10. Grow it as a self-sowing annual elsewhere.
