'Sunset Celebration' is a short-lived deciduous perennial offering 3 seasons of interest. Long and heavy blooming, the plant flowers profusely in daisy-esque blooms with a single row of bold, vivid red rays over an exceptionally long period, from early spring into fall.
Borne singly on very strong, upright stems, the brightly colored flowers age well and will not fade. They make excellent cuts for kitchen table bouquets or additions to floral arrangements. Nectar rich, the flowers attract bees and butterflies, and Goldfinches appreciate the spent flowers going into winter.
This herbaceous plant, also known as a blanket flower, has a compact, mounding habit of bushy gray-green foliage. Easy care, it thrives in full sun and average, well-draining soil and may naturalize in wild areas. It is heat and drought tolerant, once established.
Shown to best effect when planted in groups in beds, borders, and containers.
