Gaura

One of my favourite plants ..funny i had never heard of this plant till 5 months back when i saw it on ebay stunning, the flowers are just like delicate butterflies.

I was the same Lori. I bought it from local garden centre unlabelled about 3 months ago, just knew it was a perennial and I'm always keen to find perennials that I havn't got. I identified it after purchase with help of GOY members.

I bought Gaura this summer.
Hoping it will survive the winter.

I hope so too TT. It was sold here as perennial at a good local nursery, so if it survives here it will definitely be OK in Britain.

it is so lovely i and thought i would try to take cuttings which i did a few months back, i put them in water and roots appeared within a week ! now i have 3 Gaura plants :))

Lori ~
Do you think I could take Gaura cuttings.
Or is it too near winter ?

Terratoonie, Try it and see i have mine in a glass of water on the kitchen window sill, looked this morning roots are beginning to show ! will pot mine on in a week or so
and keep in the cold greenhouse over the winter , see what happens.

Thanks Lori :
I've just put Gaura cuttings on my list for tasks to do tomorrow. :o)

Good luck Tarratoonie :))
