Thompson Morgan Gaillardia Aristata Arizona Sun 1 Litre Potted Plant X 1 Red

Gaillardia aristata ‘Arizona sun’ matches its title for the fiery shades of red, orange and yellow flowers that appear amongst the bushy green foliage. The large summery daisy-like blooms from the hardy Gaillardia aristata are sure to make a statement in your containers or sunny boarders from early spring all the way into the autumn months! ‘Arizona sun’ is a strong perennial plant that will flourish during all weather conditions, as it is a low maintenance drought resistant plant! Grow gaillardia plants in any fertile, well - drained soil in full sun. Feed and water blanket flower plants until they are fully established. Once established gaillardia copes well with dry soils and is reasonable drought tolerant. Regular deadheading of faded gaillardia flowers will encourage more blooms to be produced. In late summer, cut back old foliage and flower stems to 15cm (6") to encourage basal growth before the first frosts. Lift and divide overcrowded clumps of blanket flower in spring, and apply a mulch of well - rotted manure or garden compost to the base of the plant.
