could it be a 'newer' gaillardia hybrid, like 'Razzle Dazzle?'

My first thought was Monarda. They kinda look like pom-poms to me.

Definitely not monarda... but it might be the gailardia!!! I'll have to look through my seeds and see if I have one with that label...

Thanks!!

One of the local stores had a plant a few weeks ago called a dahlina. It had big red pom-poms, almost like a zinnia only in a ball shape. From the name I thought it might be a dahlia hybrid of some sort. I'd should have bought it for the seeds, but if it was a hybrid they probably wouldn't come true anyway, right?

I ws and planted this red pom pom gaillardia last year. Sadly, none of them returned this year.

Dalina is a hybrid dahlia from the proven winners company.

Since it is a hybrid, it is doubtful that the seeds would come true to the parent plant, but one just might be pleasantly surprised by what the seeds do produce.

Dalina comes in 24 different colors and blooms as well as heights.
