A worldwide community photographing and learning about wildlife
Gaura lindheimeri
It is a perennial herbaceous plant. The flowers are produced on a 10–80 cm long inflorescence; they are pink or white, 2–3 cm diameter, with four petals 10–15 mm long and long hairlike stamens, and are produced from the beginning of spring until the first frost. There is a small assassin bug blending in just behind the bloom.
The garden is about half an acre of native plants specifically planted for wildlife. The main water source is a pond that is filtered by two gravel streams. It is on a peninsula by Lake Lewisville.
