Gaillardia, or Blanket Flower, is an easy to grow, perennial with richly colored, daisy like flowers. I love having these sunshine flowers in my garden. They always make me happy to see the brightly colored blooms.
If I had a single flower for everytime iIthink about you, I could walk forever in my garden.

It looks like the smiling sun and its rays.
It does remind me of sunshine too. 🙂
Nice bright flower and complimentary sweet words to accompany your message to the world.
Funny thing tho, blanket makes think of Michael Jackson’s kid. Who names their child Blanket? Aah… only Michael.
There you are! So good to see you my friend. You are right mount Blanket, an odd name for sure.
We had these growing wildly in our garden as a kid, in a couple of colors as well.
Oh that is cool to see them in the wild.
The red and yellow colors of the flower stand out in a positive way.
Thanks that is what I love about this one.
Color combinations have great power.
The colors of this flower are really wonderful, my dear friend
Thanks it is one of my favorites.
Yeah , It is found here in Jasmine garden
Oh good so you know the flower too.

Yes the bees flock to the bloom.
… and the birds and the butterflies as well.
all you can eat pollen. wait, why do birds like flowers?
Wonderful flower. I’m not sure I’ve seen it before.
Thanks, it is pretty common here and I love the colors. It doesn’t bloom long.
What a gorgeous flower!
Thanks, I love the colors on this one.
