Gaillardia 'The Sun'

Here is the flower to build a garden around. Endlessly blooming and very easy to care for, The Sun is a magnificent sun-lover you will enjoy in garden and vase for many seasons to come. The most floriferous of all Blanket Flowers, it sets its big yellow-and-orange blooms for many months, so your garden is never "out of bloom"! The Sun is just 15 inches high and wide -- a good size for flowerpots as well as the garden bed and border -- but covers itself with blooms from early summer all the way into fall. Such cheery flowers, too -- big daisies crowded with long yellow petals around a bold orange cone. And Blanket Flowers are "cut-and-come-again, " so if you keep the flowers picked or deadheaded, new buds will pop up quicker than ever.
