GAURA LINDHEIMERI (BUTTERFLY BUSH)
Gaura is a hardy, herbaceous perennial that is almost constantly in bloom. Its full scientific name is Gaura lindheimeri, but it is also known as bee blossom.

The unique and wonderful thing about gaura is that its blooms resemble real life butterflies. The plant is very eye-catching due to these butterfly-like blooms and they make the plant well worth considering for inclusion in your garden (gaura also attracts real life butterflies as well!).

Gaura is relatively easy to grow. It thrives in loamy or sandy well-draining soil and is very hardy due to a long taproot that makes it virtually drought resistant. The negative thing concerning the taproot is that it makes the plant difficult to dig up and separate since its almost impossible to get the taproot all the way out of the ground, and if the taproot ever gets broken the gaura will die. So make sure you have chosen the best location before you plant it.

You can plant gaura by itself or use it to fill in various areas of your garden. You can also line your driveway or walking paths with it. Usually grows to heights of 70 to 80 cm and spread out about 100cm wide. Gaura grows into a vase-shaped bush with hairy stems, and the blooms will be about 25mm wide with four petals each. The petals will be either pink, white, or a deep rose color. The stems of the plant will be erect and wiry. The seeds take two to three weeks to germinate and you can save the seeds for future planting. Gaura will bloom from early spring to early winter and its very resistant to frost and cold; occasionally you will even see blooms appearing in deep winter.
