Description
The Gaillardias are one of the great glories of American wildflowers, carpeting whole landscapes to the horizon in the plains states and the west. The natives are the famous yellow and white pinwheel bi-colors. In our wildflower seed department, we sell the much-loved Blanket Flower.
But hybridizers are always anxious to improve native plants, no matter how beautiful they may be. And in this case, they have. Goblin is one of the oldest, and still probably the most popular hybrid, with very large flowers and a long bloom season.
Many other newer hybrids emphasize one color or the other--the red or the yellow. And in very recent years, even the flower form has changed.Planting & Care

Reviews
After a slow trip across the country plants were stressed
"Scattered among other flowers in my beds. One died immediately and doesn't seem to be sending up new growth. One looks good and one suffered serious die back, but I'm hopeful it is sending up a new leaf from roots. Love gaillardias and hope these two remaining ones will survive."
ALWAYS blooming despite the weather.
"Use these plants along edge between weeping holly tree and pool pavers. Bloom constantly until they wear out. No break for rest in FL spring, summer, fall, winter."
Shame on American Meadows
"Ordered 36 plants and they arrived in the poorest condition you can imagine. 4 are nothing but a rotten stalk with no leaves and the rest are yellow leaves all wilted over. Water and some sun for 48 hours have done nothing to improve their condition. I love Blanket Flowers, I will still plant them but because our growing season is not long, they'll probably be a bust this year, and I can only pray they'll survive the winter and be better next year."
I would buy this plant again
"Great for the front of the garden as it's a low lying small plant continuously in bloom once it gets started."
Arizona red
"Add beautiful colors to my rose containers I would buy more, but out of stock."
Arizona Red I would buy again
"Used to enhance the boundary of our lawn."
Beautiful color, grew quickly
"I didn't realize that this plant would be so short and I fortunately planted it mid garden, it however flourished and I just transplanted it to a more suitable place in the garden. Could not believe how healthy and how quickly it grew."
Beautiful healthy plants!! I would buy again!!
"Non stop flowering and the flowers last a long time! Nice compact plants. They arrived very healthy and some already had buds on them! I would highly recommend this planned!"
Wonderful
"This little plant has grown great for me since it arrived in the spring and being RED thats a bonus for me. Try it you'll love it too. Loves HOT HOT sun."
Did well the first season
"Bought four plants that did very well the first summer. The flowers were prolific and attractive in my border. Unfortunately, only two survived to come back the following spring."
