GAILLARDIA 
Blanket Flower 
Beautiful flowers are born in profusion 
and make a striking- effect. They last a 
long while as a cut flower and are abun¬ 
dant from June until frost. They are an 
ornamental addition to the herbaceous 
border. The perennial Gaillardia is con¬ 
tent with extremely simple treatment. 
DWARF GOBLIN. The new Gaillardia 
Goblin is especially suitable for the rock 
garden. The plants are dwarf 12 to 16 
inches high and form broad bushes of 
close and compact habit. They are cov¬ 
ered all over with beautiful two-colored 
Blanket Flowers so that the foliage en¬ 
tirely disappears under the mass of bright 
yellow blooms with deep red zone.

ing practically no yellow.

MAGNIFICENT. Of all the Gaillardias we 
have grown and tested, we believe that 
this is really worth your consideration. 
It produces stems 24-30 inches in length. 
Flowers are extra large, measuring 3 to 
5 inches in diameter, and of such sub¬ 
stance that they will stand up well in 
larger baskets and they are outstanding 
as a basic flower. Color is a bright golden 
yellow with a defined mahogany zone; 
petals are very broad. The flowers last 
a long time when used in floral arrange¬ 
ments. We consider this a superior type 
of Gaillardia.
