Description
The Gaillardia x grandiflora 'Burgunder' or blanket flower offers endless flowering from June to October, drawing resources even from the poorest soils to provide the never-ending spectacle of its intensely deep red flowers around a yellow and red centre, resembling large daisies. It forms beautiful clumps of stems and fuzzy grey-green foliage, reaching 60 cm (24in) in all directions. This short-lived perennial has a strong constitution, tolerating cold, heat, and drought, but it fears humidity, its only weakness. It belongs to those almost foolproof perennials that find their place in all gardens, regardless of their style!
Gaillardia x grandiflora has been created by combining two plants called Gaillardia aristata and Gaillardia pulchella. This hybrid plant has inherited some of the positive traits of its parents, like hardiness, longevity, and floribundity. 'Burgunder' is one of the popular varieties of this plant, which can grow up to 60cm in all directions and produce large red flowers with a yellow centre. The plant's foliage is mainly basal and has narrow and slightly lobed or deeply cut, greenish-grey, and fuzzy leaves.
Although gaillardias are a bit outdated, they are still known for their abundant florals and can be a great addition to gardens in milder climates, especially in mediocre soils. However, they are not tolerant of high humidity, even in well-drained soil, requiring a specific environment. They can be paired with other undemanding and floriferous plants like lavenders, perennial geraniums of blood-red or ash-grey colour, artemisias, and grasses.

Planting and care
Gaillardias are hardy plants that can survive extreme weather conditions such as heat, cold, drought and strong winds. They can also grow well in poor soil. If the plants are watered a little bit during dry spells or if there is some rain, the flowers can come back to life. It's best to plant them in soil that drains well and in an area that gets full sun. If the gaillardias are tall, they may need to be staked. If you live in a cooler climate, cutting back the stems to 10 cm (0 to 4in) in late September can help the plants survive the winter. Although cutting back the stems may cause a reduction in the number of flowers, it will make the plant stronger in the long run.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a (East Coast and Midlands: Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny, Portlaoise). It will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the north-west (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal, Westport), delay planting by 1 to 2 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 1 to 2 weeks in autumn compared to the dates given, preferably choosing periods without strong winds.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (Wicklow Mountains, Macgillycuddy’s Reeks, Connemara, Killarney), it is best to plant in spring (April–May) or autumn (September–October), avoiding periods of waterlogged soil in winter and strong winds, which pose the main risk to newly planted trees in these areas.
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a, such as the East Coast and Midlands, including Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny and Portlaoise.
This will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the northwest (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal and Westport), it will be delayed by one to two weeks compared to the given dates, due to stronger Atlantic winds and less spring sunshine.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (the Wicklow Mountains, the Macgillycuddy's Reeks, Connemara and Killarney), flowering will be delayed by two to three weeks. Flowering mainly occurs between May and July, with the limiting factors being less frost and more of the excessive humidity, strong winds and lack of sunshine that are characteristic of these areas.
