Pink Gaura (Oenothera lindheimeri) is moderately deer resistant, heat-tolerant, and ideal for adding texture and movement to garden designs.This Texas native grows 2-5 feet tall and thrives in a variety of soils, including sandy, loamy, and clay, with medium water use. Its blooms, which appear from April to October, attract pollinators and add a graceful touch to perennial borders. The plant's open, vase-shaped growth and arching branches create a natural, airy appearance, while its dark green leaves turn red, gold, or purple in the fall.
