Firewheel, Indian Blanket (Gaillardia pulchella)
The Firewheel, also known as Indian Blanket (Gaillardia pulchella), is a vibrant annual wildflower native to North America. Renowned for its striking red and yellow bicolor blooms, it adds a splash of color to gardens and landscapes.
Description and Characteristics:
• Plant Structure: This plant typically grows to a height of 12 to 18 inches (30 to 45 cm) with a spread of 12 to 15 inches (30 to 38 cm). It features a bushy, upright habit with lance-shaped leaves.
• Flower Quality: The daisy-like flowers are 2 to 3 inches (5 to 7.5 cm) in diameter, with vibrant red centers surrounded by yellow or orange petals. They are known to attract butterflies and other pollinators.
• Blooming Period: Blooms from early summer to fall, providing continuous color throughout the growing season.
• Adaptability: Prefers full sun and well-drained soil. Once established, it is drought-tolerant and requires minimal maintenance.
Cultivation Guidelines:
1. Planting: Sow seeds directly in the garden after the last frost date. Press seeds lightly into the soil without covering, as they require light for germination.
2. Soil Requirements: Thrives in average, dry to medium, well-drained soils. It prefers sandy soils and tolerates poor, dry soils.
3. Watering: Water regularly during establishment. Once established, it is drought-tolerant and requires minimal watering.
4. Maintenance: Deadhead spent flowers to encourage continuous blooming. It self-seeds readily, forming dense colonies over time.
Why Choose Firewheel, Indian Blanket?
The Firewheel is an excellent choice for adding vibrant color to gardens, attracting pollinators, and requiring minimal maintenance. Its drought tolerance and ability to reseed make it a sustainable addition to any landscape.
