Collection: Blanket Flower Gaillardia

The Blanket Flower, Gaillardia, is a short, flowering plant in the same family as Asters and Daisies. They can be almost any shade of yellow, orange, red, purplish, brown, white, or bicolored. Picked from Matteo's mother's yard, this beauty is a gorgeous crimson red. The common name may be derived from either the brightly colored blankets made by Native Americans or how they can spread and blanket the ground.
