Gaillardia - Arizona Red Shade

Bring a burst of intense color to your garden with the Arizona Red Shade Gaillardia. Featuring deep red petals that create a striking contrast against lush green foliage, this flower is perfect for borders and outdoor spaces that need a touch of bold elegance.

Sun: Full sun with more than 6 hours of sunlight per day. Plants may flop over if they don't get enough light.

Soil: Well-drained, loose, and poor soil. They can tolerate some dry soil and drought once established, but they rarely survive winter in heavier soils.

Water: 2 to 3 times a week until they are established. Potted plants may need more water than garden plants, especially if they are in full sun and it's hot.

Pruning: Deadheading spent blooms can help prolong the bloom time and encourage additional blooms. You can also cut the plants back to 6 inches in late summer and cover them with straw to increase the chance of winter survival.

Spacing: 12 inches apart
