Gaura Crimson Butterflies has a tight, compact form and wispy stems of dainty butterfly-like blooms. It reaches only around 45cm in height and only slightly more in spread. Foliage is a deep burgundy shade that is particularly intense whilst young but still apparent in the slightly greener, more mature leaves. In addition to this ornamentation is a long display of unusually deep, hot pink flowers which again, unlike the other varieties, are borne on far shorter, stouter stems rising just clear of the foliage.
