Gaillardia ‘Oranges and Lemons’


Blanket Flower

 USDA Zone: 4-9

Plant number: 1.220.160


Blanket Flowers are valuable in the summer border for their very long season of bloom. Plants form a low mound of light-green leaves, bearing upright stems of large daisy-type flowers. This midsized selection has lovely cool tangerine-orange flowers with a deeper eye, each petal tipped with yellow. Excellent for cutting. Attractive to butterflies. Drought tolerant once established. Not the best choice for heavy clay soil that will stay wet through the winter. Removing faded flowers will encourage constant blooming. USPP#17092: unlicensed propagation prohibited. Registered with COPF.
