Compact plant habit and prolific flowering from midsummer into fall. Use in mixed border, mass plantings, and in hot sunny areas where other perennials might struggle. 
 
This exciting variety features tall wands of airy, hot pink blooms, over dark green leaves; a great thriller for gardens, borders, or containers; attractive to butterflies; tolerant of heat, drought and humidity. Bantam® Pink Gaura features dainty spikes of hot pink star-shaped flowers rising above the foliage from early summer to early fall, which emerge from distinctive crimson flower buds. The flowers are excellent for cutting. Its narrow leaves emerge burgundy in spring, turning dark green in color throughout the season.
