Blanket Flower Seeds
Blanket Flower or “Blanketflower” is a stunning native perennial wildflower with richly colored, daisy-like flowers. The plant produces intricately colored petals of alternating red and yellow hues. Blanket Flower Seeds can be planted successfully anywhere in the USA, but this species is especially beloved in arid areas with limited drainage.
Gaillardia forms a slowly spreading mound and the common name may be a reference to how they can slowly spread and "blanket" an area.
