MARIACHI RED GAILLARDIA 1gal

The Mariachi Red Gaillardia (Gaura aristata 'SpinTop Mariachi Red Sky') is a compact powerhouse that brings an explosion of fiery color to your garden without taking over the whole bed. Reaching a tidy 12 to 14 inches tall and wide, this mounded perennial is perfect for those tight spots along a border or in your favorite patio containers. To keep it blooming its heart out from late spring all the way until the first frost, you will want to plant it in full sun; this plant is a true sun-worshipper that thrives in the heat and isn't picky about soil, as long as it drains well. One of the best things about this "Blanket Flower" is its natural defense system—it is remarkably deer and rabbit resistant, so the local critters will usually leave it alone while the butterflies and bees flock to its nectar-rich, yellow-tipped red blooms. It is a tough-as-nails, drought-tolerant neighbor that asks for very little but gives a whole lot of "wow" back to your landscape.
