Facial Hair

Rosy Jane Gaura (Gaura lindheimeri 'Rosy Jane')
Rosy Jane Gaura (Gaura lindheimeri ‘Rosy Jane’)

‘Whirling Butterflies’ is another name for this Gaura. Having big hair in my face pots has always been kind of important. So when this area was suddenly transformed into a sun garden by the loss of an ancient oak tree, I chose Gaura to replace my shade-loving Foxtail Asparagus Fern. There is another one of these face pots in the backyard which is in shade and still sports its dreadlocks of foxtails.
