Plant Description
Gaura ‘Gaudi Compact Pink’ is a delightful, free-flowering perennial that brings a
soft, airy touch to the garden with its masses of blushed pink, butterfly-like blooms.
Floating on slender stems above neat mounds of dark green foliage, the flowers
dance and flutter in the breeze, creating a sense of lightness and movement
wherever they’re planted.
Unlike taller gauras, ‘Gaudi Compact Pink’ stays tidy and low-growing, with a
naturally compact habit, making it ideal for sunny borders, gravel gardens, and
particularly patio pots. It weaves beautifully through other perennials or softens the
edge of a path or container with its graceful form and continuous bloom.
Flowering generously from early summer right through to autumn, this variety thrives
in full sun and well-drained soil. It’s drought-tolerant once established, making it
perfect for low-maintenance gardens and those wanting longlasting colour without
fuss.
To keep it at its best, deadhead spent flowers to encourage more blooms and trim
back lightly if it becomes too leggy in midsummer. Its soft pink tones pair beautifully
with lavenders and salvias or even mixed pastel schemes for a relaxed, cottagey
feel.
Whether nestled into a border or spilling gently from a patio container, Gaura ‘Gaudi
Compact Pink’ brings elegance, charm, and easy beauty to any sunny garden space.
