Gaura Lindheimeri

Supposedly Gaura Lindheimeri should thrive in this climate and I’ve been dreaming of large swathes of them swaying in the breeze. But I’ve not had much luck so far. Since 2022 I’ve planted quite a few and until last fall all of them either died or looked sick and weak – despite tender loving care including some watering.

Gaura lindheimeri blanche Snowstorm – planted 5 summer 2022, all of them dead by fall of 2023

Gaura lindheimeri Cherry Brandy – planted 3 in spring 2023, all dead one month later. Soil to compact and heavy?

Gaura lindheimeri Siskiyou pink – planted spring of 2023, did not die but did not really bloom or grow either. Some flowers in 2024 spring and fall but still not looking really thriving.

Gaura Gauriella and others – planted 4 in fall of 2024, remains to be seen.
