JL Johnson :veri_mast:<p>I’ve wanted to plant Indian Blanketflower / Firewheel / Sundance for a while, and finally went for it this year. There’s some debate on whether it’s native to the <a href="https://vmst.io/tags/KC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>KC</span></a> area despite being for sure native in nearby states. </p><p>Concerns alleviated: The Goldfinches and pollinators LOVE it. And they are BEAUTIFUL!</p><p>I planted ours in shallow deck boxes. In the future I’ll give them more room. A+, recommend. </p><p><a href="https://vmst.io/tags/PlantNative" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PlantNative</span></a> <a href="https://vmst.io/tags/KC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>KC</span></a> <a href="https://vmst.io/tags/Missouri" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Missouri</span></a> <a href="https://vmst.io/tags/bloomscrolling" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bloomscrolling</span></a> <a href="https://vmst.io/tags/Gaillardia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Gaillardia</span></a> <a href="https://vmst.io/tags/gaillardiapulchella" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>gaillardiapulchella</span></a> <a href="https://vmst.io/tags/AmericanGoldfinch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AmericanGoldfinch</span></a></p>
