How To Grow

Sow seeds directly in the garden after the last frost, or start indoors about 4-6 weeks early.

Plant in a location with full sun exposure, though they can handle some partial shade in hot climates.

Use well-draining soil, Gaillardia prefers poor soil and does not require rich matter or excessive fertilization.

Water deeply immediately after planting and check soil frequently to ensure it is moist but not soggy. Once established, Gaillardia is extremely drought tolerant and can go without watering unless there are extremely hot and dry conditions.

In cooler climates, protect your overwintering blanket flowers with a thick layer of mulch.
