Hi Chris, I have so much to show you this week because I have been busy in my garden this past weekend. I am busy planting all the great plants we bought last week on our outing and I wanted to show you the special Gaura plants you bought for me!

First butterfly flower[/one_half_last]
I planted them with my roses and in two days I have brand new shoots and flowers! So, they must be happy where they are! I can’t wait for the “whirling butterfly” flowers to cascade and fill the gaps in the rose bush bed.
Gaura is a phenomenal perennial, producing waves of delicate, butterfly-like flowers in spring through to fall. The long flower spikes provide a marvelous background for lower-growing flowers. Plant in sun or part sun in good soil. It is quite drought tolerant – so a must in our gardens!
I’m going to enjoy this beauty! Thanks my friend! xxx
