Description
Summer is the perfect time for bold colour, but it does present its share of challenges. Hot, dry weather and more hours of sunshine can be hard on some garden plants. However, Breck's Sunny Gaillardia are a perfect solution for easycare colour in the dog days of summer. Famous for their long bloom time, our Sunny Gaillardia Collection features six vibrant varieties that will heat up your garden from summer to fall.
This collection includes 1 each of following varieties:
MESA YELLOW: All summer long, its pinwheel-shaped, 2½-3½" blooms add a delightful, sunny-yellow flair to any border, rockery or container. Flowers have prominent central discs. Plant has a strong, compact, upright habit with fuzzy stems and slightly hairy, lanceolate, grey-green leaves. Grows 16-18" tall.
BURGUNDY: Wine-red blooms surround a button centre that emerges yellow and transforms to oxblood red. Easily adds stunning visual impact to any garden. Grows 30" tall
ARIZONA SUN: An All-America Selections winner and recipient of the Fleuroselect Gold Medal, it's one of the most popular gaillardia ever. Brilliant orange-red blooms tipped with a flaming ring of yellow. Grows 8-10" tall.
ARIZONA RED: These low-growing crimson gaillardia are perfect for making a bold statement in containers or the fronts of borders. Barely-there yellow tips on each petal add even more interest to this rich beauty. Grows 10-12" tall.
ARIZONA APRICOT: A softer colour combination not often seen in gaillardia. Apricot blooms with yellow tips and a dark orange centre complement the more vivid varieties in this collection. Intriguing for garden visitors and butterflies alike. Grows 12" tall.
