Gaillardia - Goblin
This is an outstanding variety, which often flowers in the first year from sowing. Mid-height plants produce masses of fiery red blooms surrounded by a ring of rich flame yellow. It can be used as annual bedding, or year after year as a perennial. It is excellent for beds and borders and flowers in first year from seed. Height: 30-45cm.
Sow February to April. Germinate at 20-30C on the surface of a good free draining, damp seed compost. Do not cover the seed. Place in a propagator or seal container inside a polythene bag until after germination which usually takes 14-21 days. Do not exclude light, as this helps germination. Transplant seedlings when large enough to handle into trays or 7.5cm pots. Grow on in cooler conditions for 1-15 days before planting out after all risk of frost, 3cm apart. Prefers a well-drained soil in full sun or semi shade.
