Best Conditions for Pink Fountain Guara??

| I'm wondering if anyone in my zone or close to it has any feedback on this plant? Don't know if it spreads, is invasive, or any other pros & cons you might share.
And is now a good time to transplant? It's very healthy but I need to move mine to a sunnier location and want to make it happy. |

| This is advice for zone 6, but most of it should apply to you. Don't transplant until spring. Don't cut it back until spring. Gaura is a western plant, accustomed to dry winters. Cutting back in fall allows the cut stems to draw winter moisture into the crown and will kill it. Plant in a very well drained place. |
