Details
Gaura lindheimeri 'Pink Fountain' features 4-petaled, light pink flowers in wand-like panicles on dense, upright plants typically growing to 2-3' tall. Flowers open a few at a time and dance in the wind like butterflies over a long late spring to autumn bloom period. Bloom on this plant is more floriferous (typically 5-8 open flowers at a time per spike during summer) than the bloom that occurs on other Wand Flower varieties.
