Description

GAILLARDIA g. ‘Goblin’. 12″ tall, 15″ spread, full sun, early summer-early fall bloom. Large, bright red petals with toothy golden yellow tips that surround the red cone center. Compact mound small, gray-green foliage. Provides continuous color in your garden all season long. Zones 3-10. Potted in 3″ pot.

Gaillardia requires full sun and well-drained soil in order to prosper. Given too much shade, the plants tend to flop over. Though they will perform best in moist soils, they are highly drought tolerant. Do not enrich the soil with compost or other rich ingredients when planting this perennial. It does best in poor, loose soils and does not tolerate heavy clay.

Plants may be divided every 2-3 years in either spring or fall and are also easily grown from seed. Deadheading spent blooms will prolong the bloom time.
