HOW TO SOW & CARE

• Sowing Time: Can be sown year-round, but February-March and September-October are ideal.

• Sowing Depth: Sow seeds 1/8 inch deep. They need a tiny bit of light to germinate, so cover them very lightly.

• Germination: Expect sprouts in 7–14 days. Keep the soil lightly moist until established.

• Sunlight: Requires full sun (at least 6+ hours) for the best flower production and color intensity.

• Spacing: Space plants 10–12 inches apart to allow for their bushy, spreading habit.

• Maintenance: Deadhead (remove faded flowers) to encourage a continuous explosion of new buds.

BENEFITS & USES

• Low Maintenance: Highly resistant to pests and can grow even in sandy or poor soil ✨.

• Vibrant Borders: Creates a dense, colorful hedge or border that looks beautiful from a distance 🏡.

• Potted Beauty: Grows excellently in medium to large pots on sunny terraces 🪴.

• Long-Lasting Cut Flowers: Their sturdy stems and bold colors make them great for casual indoor bouquets 💐.

DISCLAIMER

Germination success depends on proper drainage and sunlight. Avoid over-fertilizing, as Gaillardia prefers "lean" soil to produce more flowers rather than just leaves.
