Gaura Belleza Series 'White' Butterfly Gaura

Gaura Belleza 'White', part of the Belleza Series, is a compact and free-flowering perennial prized for its delicate, butterfly-like pure white blossoms that flutter above fine green foliage. This heat- and drought-tolerant variety delivers a graceful, airy texture to gardens and containers, blooming continuously from late spring through fall.

Its upright, mounding form and smaller size compared to other gauras make it especially suited for smaller spaces, edging, and container plantings. The white flowers open on tall, wiry stems and resemble dancing butterflies in the breeze, creating a light, romantic look in sunny landscapes.

Key Features:

• Flowers: Pure white, 4-petaled blooms on airy, branching stems; butterfly-like appearance.

• Bloom Time: Late spring through frost; continuous bloomer with minimal care.

• Height & Spread: Compact size, typically 12–18 inches tall and wide.

• Foliage: Narrow, lance-shaped green leaves with a bushy, tidy habit.

• Light Requirements: Full sun for best performance and flowering.

• Soil: Well-drained soil; tolerates poor to average soils and dry conditions.

• Hardiness: USDA zones 6–9.

• Maintenance: Very low; deadheading not necessary but can encourage even more blooms. Cut back in late winter or early spring.

• Uses: Ideal for borders, containers, pollinator gardens, and cottage-style plantings.
