Plant Sentry is designed to protect both consumers and the nursery trade from invasive plant pests and diseases. Sites that display the Plant Sentry protection badge are protected from consumers buying and nurseries shipping material carrying invasive pests and diseases.
This proprietary eCommerce software prevents the shipment of a restricted plant to each state. The Plant Sentry system includes a shipment certification program. The Plant Sentry Compliance Officer works closely with NatureHills.com and each nursery or fulfillment center to ensure only compliant plants are sold to customers.

How many of you remember seeing a native Blanket Flower for the first time? The perky, multi-colored blooms look like a fiesta is going on in the garden! But did you know that plant scientists are hard at work bringing improved cultivars of North American native wildflowers to market? Now, you can get the best of both with carefree SpinTop™ Yellow Touch Gaillardia (Gaillardia aristata 'Spintop Yellow Touch').
This compact, well-branched perennial delivers many hundreds of blooms over the long growing season. The elegant, deep coloration is a more sophisticated option to bring a designer look to your landscape. You'll still love the lavish, full-bodied display of Blanket Flower blooms. However, this handsome perennial looks a little more upscale than the typical more free-style Gaillardia you may be used to.
Rich red-orange, serrated petals are rimmed in a narrow yellow-orange margin at the very tips. The centers are still rough-textured, but the deep pigmentation makes a polished presentation. Trim the blooms regularly for fanciful cut flowers. They'll delight and entertain your guest with a bold mix of whimsy and class.
SpinTop™ Yellow Touch Blanket Flower seems to capture the zeitgeist of today's high-end design expectations. With sumptuous flower power for many months, this easy-care choice thrives in the blazing heat in thin, sandy soils throughout USDA growing zones 4 - 9.
Planting and Application:
Use them in patio or balcony containers as a beautiful backdrop for your get-togethers with family and friends. Or, weave plenty of them into your Butterfly Garden! Perfect for Firescaping and Xeriscaping, and for any hot, dry site or sandy and sunny slope for erosion control and color. Gaillardia is also perfect for accents and edging along pathways, driveways and that tricky 'hell strip' between the sidewalk and street!
Commercial property owners, use Blanket Flowers in a wide mass planting to call attention along the front facade of your building. You'll get the contemporary charm and rugged native durability with bloom after bloom! You'll enjoy plenty of blooms regardless of space or room, just add Blanket Flowers to your life in a large planter or terra cotta pot around your patios, balconies, or front porch container gardens!

#ProPlantTips for Care:
Sun-loving Yellow Touch Gaillardia grows vigorously to a 12-15 inch tall and wide herbaceous perennial mound. Thriving in average to low fertility and almost any type of well-drained soil. Doing their very best in full sun only. Tolerant to dry soils and drought once established, Blanket Flower does not do well in heavy clay soils. Gaillardia self-seeds, so deadhead after the blooms fade is recommended, and to encourage new blooms in profusion! Prune back in late fall once the foliage begins to yellow.
- Low-Maintenance Selection in Full Sun
- Very Well-Drained Soil
- Deadhead to Prevent Reseed & Encourage More Blooms
- Prune Back Late Fall
- Easy-Care, Adaptable, Drought-Tolerant, Deer & Rabbit Resistant
- Drought Tolerant Once Established
