Gaillardia x 'Oranges and Lemons' PP 17,092

Blanket Flower

Gorgeous flowers in pale orange trimmed with lemon yellow. Stunning in full bloom and in our experience, a quick sell out at retail. The lighter orange is much easier to use in designs than the more garish red and yellow combination typical of Gaillardia. Easy to grow and attractive, it is ideal for hot dry locations. Tolerant of humidity, but not wet feet. Its flower power is increased by regular deadheading.

Growing and Maintenance Tips

Grow Gaillardia in full sun and any average to dry soil that doesn't remain wet for periods of time. Cutting spent flowers improves appearance and promotes additional blooming, but isn't necessary for a continued show.
