gaillardia, thanx for renaming holly ;o))

Lovely plant! x

thanx sparkly...

are these gaillardia..... or gazanias.... the leaves are different on the gazanias.....

oh not sure now holly, i remeber getting them at car boot think you may be right with gaillardia, will look them both up holly, thanx ;o))

i only thought of the gaillardias as ive been wanting to get some.... and yours look just like them..... : O ))

yes your right holly thanx, now renamed ;o) i have gazania this year but think they are just annual, around my new tree

very nice

glad to be of help.....lol....... my gazanias seem to come back... but they are in pots..... im going to get some gaillardias next year.... love yours....

These are very nice....I have gazanias from this yr. and I've taken 4 cuttings to see if I can overwinter them and also kept the remainder of the plant indoors..see what success I have.

I do like the gaillardias....perhaps they are more hardy and will survive outside through the winter? Very autumnal colouring...just what you need for now.

will leave my gazanias in and see what happens then holly,, will let you know if this gaillardia comes again next year and then maybe i can split it, fingers crossed ;o))

cheers yorkshire ;o))
thanx Wlass good luck with your cuttings ;o))

Gaillardia should do well for you San. It likes drier condition so in this raised bed it shouldn't get too wet through winter, that could be the only trouble I could think of for it. Beautiful bright things, I like the tatty edges of all the petals.

thanx GT yes the drainage is good in my raised border,think thats why my plants do well in there, glad you like them to, i like the tatty edges as well ;o))

Nice one Sandra!

thanx carole ;o)

Lovely colours.

thanx Tog ;o))

I love these..mine are still in flower

Recently brought some gaillardia seeds on ebay San, 100 for 95 pence. Even if only some of them germinate, I thinks thats a bargain. Will start them off in propagator late Feb early March. Fingers crossed.

thanx deida, this is the second year, lost one plant so hope it survives another winter ;o))
Littlelegs that is a bargain, hope your successfull with them and have lots of lovely flowers ;o))

what a nice combination yellow red love it :))

thankyou mark, hoping it gets through winter again and then should be alot bigger next year, lasts all summer to ;o))
