Gaura ‘Pink Lady’ with hues that suggest pink lipstick blotted on white tissue. Its larger-than-average gaura blossoms and its compact, tight habit offer front- of- the- border beauty! This tidy plant keeps its blooms just above its attractive green foliage, making the blossoms always fresh-looking. It is a great garden or container plant that will take the heat. A nice combo with Crimson Butterflies!
