GAILLARDIA DUE MIXED: SPECIFICATIONS PLANT : 25-30 Cm High FLOWER : Very Attractive, Long Blooming For Period Of 4 Months COLOUR : Double Red, Orange, Yellow, Pink SPECIFICATIONS : Suitable For Bedding, Pots And Borders. Very Good Cut Flower Gaillardia Duo Mixed is a fully double mixture with a well rounded flower head. A single appears to have several tiny flowers which makes its appearance unique. These produce bold, brightly coloured flowers from summer through to early autumn. This low maintenance, hardy perennial is trouble-free and even copes well on poor, dry soils. Perfect for containers or filling gaps at the front of sunny borders. The plant is used as a diuretic, taken to give relief from painful urination. An infusion of the leaves is taken internally, and a poultice applied externally, in the treatment of gout. How to sow: Soil should be collected in a garden pot mixed with well rotten cow dung or manure. Broadcast the seeds over the soil bed and cover it with a thin layer of soil to allow germination. Maintain a distance of 1.5 feet between the plants. Irrigate immediately and then as per requirement keeping the soil moist. Flowering starts after 3-6 weeks post sowing which continues for 8-10 weeks, depending on the variety.
