Gaura lindheimeri 'The Bride' Seeds (Whirling Butterflies)
Add graceful movement and an airy elegance to your borders with Gaura lindheimeri 'The Bride'. Often called 'Whirling Butterflies', this beautiful hardy perennial produces masses of delicate, white flowers flushed with pink, held on long, wiry stems that dance in the slightest breeze. It flowers for an incredibly long season, often from early summer right through to the first frosts, providing months of beauty.
The flowers froth everywhere and turn the garden into a romantic haven and a bee paradise. They are wonderful plants for lining pathways in a cottage garden and make lovely cut flowers, either alone or as a filler in bouquets.
Gaura is a perennial that can flower in its first year. They love full sun, being prairie plants. Mulching well can help with severe winters.
