Notes

'Mesa Yellow F1' gaillardia (Gaillardia 'Mesa Yellow F1') is a perennial for borders and pollinator gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes full sun, average moisture, and sandy or loamy soil. Butterflies and bees visit the flowers, and it handles drought and salt well. It is not a favorite of deer or rabbits, though hungry ones will eat almost anything. Blooms appear in spring, summer, and autumn.

Pairs well with Coralbells, Delphinium, and Foxtail barley.
