'Blanket Flower' (gay-LARD-ee-a: grand-I-flo-ra)
This is a shorter selection growing from 6-12 inches tall, use in full sun in well drained soils. The flowers are over 4 inches wide and reddish in color with yellow tips. Zones 3-10. Surface sow seeds, germination in 5-12 days at F75. Keep the best plants and propage by dividing every two years. Nice cut flowers ( but with short stems- I cut the whole clump close to the ground and use the plants in vase as a multi stemmed flower display) that will bloom the first year.
