Pink Gaura
Description
Pink Gaura is a profusely flowering perennial for all zones that grows 2'-3' tall and wide. It has maroon buds that open to showy, reddish pink flowers in spring through fall. It needs full sun with well draining soil. However in desert areas, it appreciates afternoon shade with regular watering. In non-desert areas, it is drought tolerant once it's established. Prune plant in spring to refreshen and fertilize to ensure more blooms. Looks great in containers.
