This annual North American wildflower has a cone centre, a bit like Echinacea, but surrounded by sunset red petals tipped in gold. Start Blanketflower Gaillardia seeds indoors 4 to 6 weeks before last frost, or direct sow in April. For best results, top dress with well-rotted manure just as flowering starts. Deadhead regularly and avoid overhead watering to prevent the onset of mildew in late summer. Gaillardia will self sow, but is not an invasive plant. Its natural drought resistance makes it an excellent choice for xeriscaping. They are also nice to have around for cut flower arrangements. Flowers can be quite variable in size and colour pattern.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAnnual\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"height: 145.068px;\" width=\"100%\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5952px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 32.0486%; height: 19.5952px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLatin Name\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 67.5997%; height: 19.5952px;\"\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eGaillardia pulchella\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5952px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 32.0486%; height: 19.5952px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDifficulty\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 67.5997%; height: 19.5952px;\"\u003eEasy\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5952px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 32.0486%; height: 19.5952px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExposure\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 67.5997%; height: 19.5952px;\"\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003eFull sun\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5952px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 32.0486%; height: 19.5952px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDays To Sprout\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 67.5997%; height: 19.5952px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e7-20 Days\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 39.1903px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 32.0486%; height: 39.1903px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eStarting\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 67.5997%; height: 39.1903px;\"\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eSow on the surface of the soil.
