Absolutely stunning red and yellow Blanket Flower (Gaillardia) seeds. Harvested in Fall 2021. Perennial flower grown in ZONE 3.

Annual Gaillardia is known as Blanket Flower and is native to Northern Mexico. They make great cut flowers and look spectacular planted en masse in the hot, sunny conditions in which they thrive.

Latin: Gaillardia pulchella
Family: Asteraceae
Difficulty: Easy
Exposure: Full sun

Timing:
Direct sowing is easiest, and is done after last frost, or in the autumn in places where winter is mild. They can also be sown indoors 4-6 weeks before last frost. These would be transplanted out once daytime temperatures are consistently above 10°C (50°F). Seeds will germinate in 7-20 days. If starting indoors, provide bright light and a soil temperature of 21°C (70°F).

Starting:
Sow on the surface of the soil. Transplant or thin to stand 15-30cm (6-12″) apart.

Growing:
Feed once, just as flowering begins, and top-dress with well-rotted manure once in summer. Deadhead regularly. Water regularly during dry spells, keeping leaves as dry as possible – this can be done in the early morning, so leaves dry off by noon. Gaillardia will self sow.

Excellent germination rate of around 95%. These can be direct sown or can be started indoors now and you will have beautiful plants for your garden by the time you need them.

Approximately 20~ seeds/package.

Free shipping in Canada.
