    Gaillardia X grandiflora 'Arizona Sun'...that is. ;) Took this shot in my garden back in 2010. I really like these little flowers, just snip the heads after they finish blooming and they bloom all summer!!

    I like those flowers. Do you live in Arizona or just grow flowers named Arizona Sun? dr and I used to live in Arizona before we moved to Texas.

    Beautiful. I have them in my garden also. But need to keep an eye on them so they don't take over where they are planted. :stew1:

    We used to grow these flowers just that color in Arizona. They were a favorite of my dad. I haven't tried to grow them here. Maybe I will look for some plants or seeds for them. Thanks for the picture.

    I grow there here in southern Ontario too. They are hardy plants and I love their cheery blooms. Don't forget to deadhead them though ...
