Gaura lindheimeri Geyser Pink

Common Name:
Gaura 'Geyser Pink'

Description:
Gaura lindheimeri 'Geyser Pink' is a graceful and long-flowering perennial known for its airy stems and soft, butterfly-like pink blooms that dance in the breeze. This variety has a compact and upright form compared to older cultivars, making it a great choice for smaller gardens or container displays. The blooms appear in abundance from late spring through to autumn, with delicate four-petalled flowers lining tall, wiry stems above a neat mound of narrow, lance-shaped green foliage. Well-suited to Melbourne’s climate, Gaura 'Geyser Pink' thrives in full sun and is tolerant of heat, dry spells, and poor soils, provided drainage is good. Once established, it’s a water-wise option that requires minimal care. Light trimming after flowering will help maintain shape and encourage repeat blooming. Its light, airy appearance adds movement and softness to garden borders, coastal landscapes, and gravel gardens.
