Gaura Alba, commonly known as the White Butterfly Bush, is an herbaceous perennial that produces masses of small, white flowers atop rich foliage. The four-petaled flowers are borne on wiry stems from late spring through summer above the narrow, green leaves as it grows to about 40 cm tall and 30 cm wide. Gaura Alba is commonly included in borders, mixed plantings, cottage and “white” gardens, maintained in a container, or mass planted. In colder regions it is often treated as an annual and replanted each year.

Gaura Alba Details

Gaura Alba, commonly known as the White Butterfly Bush, is an herbaceous perennial that produces masses of small, white flowers atop rich foliage. The four-petaled flowers are borne on wiry stems from late spring through summer above the narrow, green leaves. The flowers move like butterflies in light breezes. It grows as a mound to about 40 cm tall and 30 cm wide, performing best when planted on a well-drained site in full sun. Gaura Alba is commonly included in borders, mixed plantings, cottage and “white” gardens, maintained in a container, or mass planted. In colder regions it is often treated as an annual and replanted each year. This plant is highly valued for its long flowering and is often used as a cut flower.
