Is 'Alba' as tall as 'Vanilla' Spritz ?
I have 'Vanilla' and she's almost 3'.

No - she is quite small, Louise. A mini-gaura! lol.

Eileen, I shall pop across and take a look! :-)

Beautiful flowers. I have the normal one which grows to about 4-5ft.

I have just been out and taken three shoots from her - they are safely in water in the greenhouse!

Toto - that's a tall one! Wow!

I thought it was just the standard size Spritz. I like it. Waving about in the breeze it can look quite ethereal.

Oh dear - mind you, I haven't got round to cutting all the edges yet - and the grass needs cutting again! :-(

We've had such strange weather here - not proper rain, but drizzly, so the grass is too wet to mow, but the garden hasn't had enough watering.

Are they easy to take then Spritz? love the plant.

I have NO idea, Dd. This is an experiment - Tt started it and succeeded with Gauras, so I'm having a go!
