Today’s Flowers: Gaillardia

gaillardia
Since last week I posted a gazania flower, this week I am featuring a gaillardia (also known as a blanket flower), taken at the same farm back in September.

Today’s Flowers is hosted by Luiz Santilli Jr. Thank you, Luiz, for this lovely and fun meme.

I only became familiar with these through Today's Flowers.
Now they have become a favorite and this one is beautiful!
I like how you captured the one to the right just emerging.
