Gaura Papillon
An elegant, long-flowering perennial with delicate, butterfly-like blooms that hover above fine, wiry stems from early summer right through into autumn. The soft white flowers, often flushed with pink, move effortlessly in the breeze, bringing a natural looseness to any planting scheme.
‘Papillon’ forms a light, airy clump with slender stems and small leaves, making it ideal for weaving through borders without overwhelming neighbouring plants. It works particularly well alongside grasses, salvias and other sun-loving perennials where movement and softness are key.
This is a resilient, drought-tolerant plant once established, thriving in full sun and free-draining soils. It’s well suited to more naturalistic planting styles and lower input gardens where longevity and performance matter.
A consistent favourite for pollinators, the open flowers provide an accessible source of nectar throughout the season, supporting bees and other beneficial insects.
Key details:
Position: Full sun
Soil: Free-draining, light soils preferred
Height and spread Approx. 60 to 80cm x 40 to 60cm
Flowering June through to October
Wildlife: Attractive to bees and pollinators
Size: 1L Pot
