Gauras
Published February 09, 2024
Here at Creekside, we carry several different Gauras! The Graceful Pink Gaura blooms with soft pink flowers that open from dark pink buds above a low mound of bronze-green leaves. The Passionate Rainbow has delicate silky pink flowers with beautiful, variegated foliage. Both are tough perennials that tolerate heat, humidity and some drought conditions once established making them a perfect plant for Texas gardens and beds! Deadheading is not necessary for continued blooming although you may want to trim back the dead stems in midsummer to encourage new blooms. Deer resistant, but highly attractive to butterflies, add these graceful spots of color to any landscape for blooms all summer long!
