Pink perennials

Gaura Siskiyou Pink is a charming perennial that brings lightness and airiness to the garden. Its original native area is in the warm regions of Texas and Louisiana, which is why it thrives in full sun and well-drained sandy soil.

Gaura is excellent for summer bouquets. We cut the stems for a vase as soon as the first two to three little flowers open.
