Gaillardia x aristate Arizona Sun - Blanket Flower

These perennials require little care once established. They are heat tolerant and actually prefer to be grown in poorer soils.

They get their name from the manner in which they used to blanket North American prairies with their blooms.

They can still be found in fields and along roadsides in the prairie regions and into the Rockies.

Arizona Sun Gaillardia or Blanket Flower has wonderful blooms that are orange, red and bright yellow in colour and are daisy-like.  Their foliage is a grey green.

These plants bloom from early June through autumn.  They prefer sunny locations in dry or windy sites, and can also be grown well in containers. Their blooms also produce long lasting cut flowers.  

Supplied in 1 litre containers.
