Bantam® Iris Pink Gaura (Gaura lindheimeri ‘Bantam® Iris Pink’)

Bantam® Iris Pink Gaura (Gaura lindheimeri ‘Bantam® Iris Pink’) is a compact flowering plant prized for its masses of soft pink blooms that dance gracefully above airy foliage. The delicate flowers resemble fluttering butterflies, creating movement, texture, and continuous colour in containers, borders, and mixed garden plantings from late spring until frost.

The elegant pink flowers are held on slender stems above a compact mound of green foliage, creating a light, airy appearance that blends beautifully with other annuals and perennials. Its naturally branching habit produces an abundance of blooms throughout the season while attracting bees, butterflies, and other beneficial pollinators.

Bantam® Iris Pink is especially valued for its heat tolerance, drought resistance, and long flowering season. Its compact size makes it ideal for patio containers, hanging baskets, edging, and smaller garden spaces where larger gaura varieties may be too vigorous. The continuous flowering habit provides reliable colour with very little maintenance.

In Alberta, Bantam® Iris Pink Gaura performs best in full sun with well-drained soil and moderate watering during establishment. Once established, it thrives in warm summer conditions and tolerates short periods of drought while continuing to bloom.
