way throughout the entire growing season Summer and Fall. Even
in the West Coast climate Gaura Blaze withstands the rains they
receive in all seasons.
Planting: Easy to grow requiring little maintenance and tolerates
a variety of soils, best in well-drained, moist and fertile soils.
Grows in hot, dry conditions but mulching and occasional deep
watering is recommended.

flower production.
