Firewheel Wildflower Appeal:
Blanket Flower is commonly called Firewheel for its vivid, wheel-like color patterns. Known by many regional names, including Indian Blanket and Sundance, this cheerful wildflower brings native-inspired beauty and dependable performance to gardens across a wide range of climates.
How to Grow Blanket Flower:
Sow seeds directly outdoors after the danger of frost has passed, or start indoors for transplanting. Lightly cover seeds and plant in full sun with well-draining soil. Water during establishment, then reduce watering once plants are established. Blanket Flower performs best when soil is not overly rich and requires little maintenance beyond occasional deadheading.
