Arizona Red Shades is another popular blanket flower variety from the Arizona series. It has rich red daisy-like flowers from June until late September or early October if early autumn is sunny and warm. Its stems are short which helps maintain a compact, mounding habit and form a dense, extremely free flowering cushion. Deciduous leaves are light green.
Blanket flowers need full sun and well-drained soil that does not remain wet especially in winter. They withstand drought once established. Arizona series is supposed to be hardy to almost -37°C (USDA zone 3).
