Description
These perennials require little care once established. Gaillardia is considered a “short-lived” perennial, so it is recommended to leave some seed heads at the end of the season to encourage re-seeding. They are heat tolerant and actually prefer to be grown in poorer soils. They get their name from the manner in which they used to blanket North American prairies with their blooms. They can still be found in fields and along roadsides in the prairie region and into the Rockies.
