Indian Blanket Flower is a stunning annual North American native wildflower that brings a burst of color to gardens with its fiery, daisy-like flowers growing 2-3 wide featuring red centers and yellow or orange tips. Reaching a height of 1-2 feet and spreading about 1-1/2 feet wide, it is perfect for adding a splash of color to borders, rock gardens, or wildflower meadows. The name "Indian Blanket" is derived from the flower's appearance, which resembles the intricate patterns and vibrant colors of traditional Native American blankets. This plant is native to the central United States and northern Mexico, where it thrives in prairies, open woods, and along roadsides. This hardy plant thrives in poor soil and requires minimal care, making it ideal for sunny, well-drained spots. To enjoy its vibrant blooms, plant Indian Blanket Flower in full sun and water sparingly once established. The flowers can be cut for bouquets, bringing their cheerful presence indoors.
