If there is a perennial heaven, there must be plenty of blanket flowers. This is such a beautiful flowering plant that should not be missing in any bed where bright colours and summer flowering are key features.

Arizona Red Shades is another popular blanket flower variety from the Arizona series. It has rich red daisy-like flowers from June until late September or early October if early autumn is sunny and warm. Its stems are short which helps maintain a compact, mounding habit and form a dense, extremely free flowering cushion. Deciduous leaves are light green.

Blanket flowers need full sun and well-drained soil that does not remain wet especially in winter. They withstand drought once established. Arizona series is supposed to be hardy to almost -37°C (USDA zone 3).
