Plant Features
Goblin Gaillardia Plants produce bi-color flowers composed of scarlet-red petals with yellow tips that surround a reddish-brown cone. This compact variety blooms from summer into fall. They are great for providing lasting color to fresh flower arrangements. Blanket flowers offer non-stop blooms, thrive in full sun and poor soil conditions (must be well-drained), are drought-tolerant once established, salt-tolerant, and attract butterflies, bees, and wild birds when the seed head dries out.
