    Gaillardia x grandiflora Lunar 'Orange Moon' (Gaillardia x grandiflora Lunar 'Orange Moon') is a warmly glowing, richly colored blanket flower that captures the luminous warmth of a late-summer harvest moon in its large, vivid, pure orange daisy blooms — a saturated, warm orange of exceptional clarity and presence that radiates heat and sunshine from every flower through an exceptionally long season of generous, continuous bloom. The Lunar series represents a significant advance in blanket flower breeding — delivering a more refined, single-toned color palette in clean, jewel-bright shades on a compact, well-branched, sturdy form with larger, more impactful flower heads than older gaillardia selections. 'Orange Moon' is among the most warmly beautiful single-toned gaillardia available — its pure, saturated orange delivering a focused, glowing presence in sunny borders, rock gardens, and container arrangements that complements and enriches a remarkably wide range of companion planting combinations.

    This professional-grade 4" plant arrives with a healthy, well-established root system cultivated through professional horticultural practices — ready to establish quickly and begin its long, generous flowering display. 'Orange Moon' excels in mixed perennial borders, cottage gardens, prairie-inspired plantings, coastal gardens, and sunny container arrangements where its vivid, pure orange flowers provide a warm, sustained color anchor from early summer into fall. It is particularly stunning combined with deep burgundy companions, golden rudbeckia, blue salvias, and silver-leaved plants for richly layered, warm-palette late-summer compositions of genuine seasonal presence.

    • Pure, Vivid Orange Flowers of Exceptional Warmth: Large, single-toned vivid pure orange daisy blooms of exceptional color clarity and warmth are produced in generous, continuous abundance — a focused, luminous orange presence that radiates heat and harvest-season richness in sunny borders, containers, and prairie plantings from early summer well into fall.
    • Lunar Series Advanced Breeding: A refined, clean single-toned color in a more compact, well-branched form with larger, more impactful flower heads than older gaillardia selections — the Lunar series delivers enhanced ornamental presence, a tidier garden habit, and a more focused, jewel-bright color palette than standard grandiflora types.
    • Exceptional Heat & Drought Tolerance: Thrives in the full heat of summer and tolerates dry conditions with admirable resilience once established — a genuinely self-sufficient, low-maintenance warm-season performer for water-wise, Mediterranean-style, and xeriscape garden designs throughout a long and productive bloom season.
    • Prolific Long-Season Bloom: Flowers continuously and abundantly from early summer through fall with regular deadheading — one of the most reliably heat-resilient and long-blooming perennials available for sunny borders, delivering warm, vivid orange color across the full length of the growing season.
    • Native Pollinator Value: Retaining strong native pollinator attraction as a Gaillardia hybrid, 'Orange Moon' reliably draws native bees, butterflies, and beneficial insects throughout the long bloom season — providing vital pollen and nectar resources while delivering its warmly glowing orange display across summer and fall.

    These 4" healthy live plants thrive in full sun (6+ hours daily) with well-drained, lean to average soil; avoid rich, fertile conditions and consistently wet positions — lean soil and excellent drainage produce the most prolific, vivid, and longest-lived plants. Water regularly during establishment, then reduce to low supplemental irrigation. USDA Hardiness Zones 3–9; mature height: 12–18 inches in bloom; spread: 12–18 inches. Bloom time: early summer through fall. Deadhead spent blooms regularly for best continuous flower production.

    We use expedited shipping policies to protect plant health and minimize plant stress in transit.  All plants are in transit for only 1-3 days. (This does not guarantee 3-day delivery as orders are not always packed and sent out on the day of your order.) We send out deliveries on a weekly schedule to ensure quick transit times, so your order may not be packaged and shipped until later in the week. For instance, we may hold shipments to avoid weekend delays that keep plants in transit for longer.

    Additionally, any delays or damages in shipping are covered by our Healthy Plant Guarantee.

    If you're plants arrived damaged, we will happily replace them for free!
