I love Gillenia! I have three plants, just about to flower. They are in their third year and are about 2' tall...ish. Lovely!

I bought another one today, to keep this one company. It seems to be the 'in' plant - someone said one of the Chelsea gardens used it!

Yes, Gillenia and Gaura seem to be very popular and are in all the GCs up here!

Gaura certainly is - I even saw a 6-pack a bit like large plugs!
