Gaillardia aristata: rays entirely yellow or yellow with a purple base and setae-like chaff evidently exceeding the mature cypsela bodies (vs. G. pulchella, with rays entirely red-purple or red-purple with a yellow apex and setae-like chaff about equaling to shortly exceeding the mature cypsela bodies).
Most blanket flowers admired in our gardens are hybrids resulting from a cross between Gaillardia pulchella (annual) and Gaillardia aristata (perennial). They combine the richly colored flowers of the first one with the perennial nature of the second one.
Lewis and Clark collected the much larger-flowered, short-lived perennial G. aristata in Montana in 1806, with its variable fringed flowers in reds and yellows.
