Origin
The Gaura lindheimeri Gaudi Rose, also known as Wandflower, originates from the southern United States. This perennial plant, which is native to Texas and Louisiana, is named after Ferdinand Jacob Lindheimer, a well-known botanist who greatly contributed to the knowledge of North American flora in the 19th century.
Characteristics
The Gaura lindheimeri Gaudi Rose is a compact, bushy plant that grows up to 45 centimetres tall. Its distinctive characteristics are the pink flowers with four petals and the narrow, green leaves. The plant blooms from June to September, with flowers appearing to flutter in the wind, which explains the nickname Wandflower. The plant has a strong growth and blooming power and is perennial.
Care
The Gaura lindheimeri Gaudi Rose thrives best in full sun and well-draining soil. As the plant is drought tolerant, occasional watering is generally sufficient. In early spring, it is recommended to prune the plant back to 10 cm above the ground to stimulate new growth. This hardy plant is generally resistant to pests and diseases, but regular checks for any potential problems are recommended to maintain the health and vitality of the plant.
