Gaillardia × grandiflora Mesa™ ‘Bright Bic...


Blanket Flower

USDA Zone: 4-9

Plant number: 1.220.640


Blanket Flowers are valuable for their very long season of bloom. They form a low mound of light-green leaves, bearing upright stems of large daisy-like flowers. This new midsized selection flowers the first year and features bright yellow petals with a wide red band on the inside surrounding the large brown cone. The width of the band depends on temperature but the petals will usually be more yellow than red. Attractive to butterflies. Drought tolerant once established. Not the best choice for heavy clay soil, especially if it remains wet through the winter. Removing faded flowers will encourage constant blooming.
