{"product_id":"gaura-lindheimeri-the-bride","title":"Gaura lindheimeri | The Bride","description":"\u003cp\u003eAlso known as whirling butterflies and Lindheimer's Beeblossom, this romantic floaty perennial is a must-have in the garden. This variety has white blossoms tinged with blush pink. Gaura enjoys a particularly long flowering season which is normally from early summer right the way through into autumn.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe plants form a vase-shaped clump up to about 50-100cm high and the branches laden with their pretty flowers on wand-like stems arch outwards laden with flowers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe great thing about this plant is that it is low care, and it thrives on neglect. It is drought tolerant once established and tolerates heat, humidity, full sun and partial shade. Butterflies and bees are attracted to the flowers. Plants will self-sow but are easily removed and transplanted to other areas of the garden. As Gaura has a thick taproot, the plants do not like to be divided but as they self-sow, this will give you plenty more plants if you want them that are easily transplanted when small.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhilst deadheading is not necessary, cutting back in midsummer will encourage new flowering stems which will also result in a more compact and tidier plant. A perfect choice for a pot, a rock garden, cottage gardens or naturalistic plantings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlants are deciduous in winter except in milder climates where it will be evergreen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTaxonomic research in the early 2000's moved this and other Gaura species into the genus Oenothera, so the plant becomes Oenothera lindheimeri, although that name change has not been adopted in the horticultural industry\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePerennial | Hardy | Winter Dormant\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHeight 60 - 100cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePot size: 1 Litre\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Addenbrooke","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48967554957589,"sku":null,"price":14.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2587\/5606\/files\/Image-in_flower_coming_soon_0a0c9919-9c05-4cf5-8c0d-aa1f3bc47a9f.png?v=1764816037","url":"https:\/\/addenbrooke.co.nz\/products\/gaura-lindheimeri-the-bride","provider":"Addenbrooke","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
