Mesa Yellow is our new favorite all yellow Gaillardia. The large flowers and short compact frame are the top attributes of this fine plant. We had grown the selection Yellow Queen for years but this new comer out performs it in the garden. We are always on the lookout for better, more improved plants. Mesa Yellow’s flowers are freely produced in the heat and absolutely relished by butterflies. Hybrid Gaillardias are more apt to survive our Oklahoma winters if they are grown in a well drained soil in full sun.
