This is a sparklingly white Gaura, its clusters of starry blooms are borne in panicles on upright stems above fresh green, lance-shaped foliage. Particularly prized for its compact habit, the pretty flowers of G. lindheimeri Papillon introduce an elegant delicacy to herbaceous borders or tubs, which belies its robust nature. This long flowering perennial is also attractive to native pollinators.
