A new gaura that has performed well as a perennial in LSU AgCenter landscape trials is Sparkle White. This gaura was a 2014 All-America Selections bedding plant winner.
Gaura brings airy elegance to the garden with its long, slender stems sporting a large number of dainty white flowers tinged with a pink blush. This beauty is perfect for mass planting in sun-drenched landscape beds, in groupings with other perennials or in larger containers.
Home gardeners will appreciate that this season-long bloomer also has excellent heat tolerance and a more uniform flowering habit than other seed gauras. Commercial growers can use Sparkle White as a first-year flowering perennial or as an annual, showing its wide range of uses.
