The genus Gaura is absent from my British and European flower books (published 1974 to 2013) - has the plant been renamed, or is there another explanation?

I couldn't understand how the deaths of all those poor campers in USA early this month were simply dismissed as a 'once in a century' freak accident. In a democracy the mainstream media have a responsibility to ensure that voters are well informed, not simply made to feel good about themselves.

The other positively ID'd spp. were Large and Small Whites, Small and Essex Skippers, Small Copper, Purple Hairstreaks, Meadow Browns, Ringlets and Gatekeepers (only males) - thus 14 spp., not 11.

I haven't ruled it out but it looks branched at base of plant - the ones I have seen in W Suffolk are very upright. Also local habitat is not dry, sandy heath.
