Care Requirements

Below, you’ll find key tips tailored to this species’ requirements. Whether you’re new to plant care or have plenty of experience, these guidelines are here to support you in keeping your green companion healthy and vibrant.

  1. Planting:
    • Choose a location with full sun and well-draining soil.
    • Dig a hole twice the width of the root ball and equal in depth.
    • Place the plant in the hole, backfill with soil, and water thoroughly.
    • Mulch around the base to help retain moisture and suppress weeds.
  2. Watering:
    • Water regularly during the first growing season to establish strong roots.
    • Once established, Gaura is drought-tolerant and requires less frequent watering.
    • Allow the soil to dry out between waterings to prevent root rot.
  3. Pruning:
    • Deadhead spent flowers regularly to encourage continued blooming and maintain a tidy appearance.
    • Cut back the plant in late fall or early spring to remove any dead or damaged growth and to promote new growth.
    • In colder climates, a light pruning in late winter can help rejuvenate the plant.
  4. Fertilizing:
    • Gaura generally requires minimal fertilization.
    • If desired, apply a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in early spring to support healthy growth.
    • Avoid over-fertilizing, as this can lead to excessive foliage at the expense of flowers.
  5. Pest and Disease Control:
    • Gaura is generally resistant to most pests and diseases.
    • Monitor for common garden pests like aphids or spider mites, and treat with insecticidal soap if necessary.
    • Ensure good air circulation around the plant to prevent fungal issues, especially in humid conditions.
