Butterfly Gaura (Gaura lindheimeri) 山桃草
This USDA Zones:5-9. hardy perennial is easy to grow. Best in full sun to partial shade. Long blooming time from summer to fall with pink flower which is good for cut flower. Flowers attract bees and butterflies. Tolerant heat, drought and fairly no maintenance! It is a native wildflower in south of USA. Mature size: 2′-3′ (H) and (W). Propagate easily by dividing plant clump in early spring.
這種強健耐旱耐熱的多年生草花很容易栽種. 最好種在全日照處,半日照也能生長但是會影響到花量. 花期很長,整個夏季和半個秋季都有花可賞. 花可做切花,頗吸引蜂蝶.
由於是原生於美國南部的野花所以不需要維護. 成熟株高及寬幅約為2′-3′. 繁殖以分株和種子為主.
