Plants: Gaura lindheimeri 'The Bride' - Bride Whirling Butterfly

Gaura 'The Bride' forms a mat of soft foliage that contrasts beautifully with the delicate white flowers held on long thin stems. It suits natural style plantings. This makes it a good plant for a cottage garden, informal borders or flowering ground cover. Its lax growth habit makes it particularly useful for filling in gaps in the border and linking other planting groups together. It has a long flowering season that lasts from early summer well into autumn.

This graceful, long-blooming member of the Evening Primrose family can tolerate drought, extreme heat and humidity. A wonderful addition to your garden, providing blooms all summer long. Cut back to 8 inches midseason of the second year to encourage fuller growth. Blooming will continue until fall if old flower spikes are removed. Dainty white flowers on slender stems.
