About Blanketflower

Blanketflower is a real treasure for any garden. This cheerful native spreads across your beds like a bright blanket, which is exactly where it got its name. The flowers are stunning—deep red petals ringed with golden yellow—and they bloom for weeks on end. Butterflies and bees absolutely love them, so you'll have plenty of wildlife visitors. Best of all, once established, blanketflower practically takes care of itself while giving you armfuls of cut flowers for your kitchen table.

Growing blanketflower is wonderfully simple. Give it a spot with good sunlight and soil that drains well. It doesn't fuss about being pampered or watered constantly, which makes it perfect for busy gardeners. Plant it in spring or fall, and it'll come back year after year. Before you know it, you'll have a thriving patch that blooms reliably and brings joy to your whole neighborhood.
