Has anyone seen the new double flowering perennial Gaillardia? I saw it in a magazine recently, but I can't remember the name of the cultivar. I did a google search, but so far no luck...all I find are the annual double flowering ones ( G. pulchella.) I think it may have been a British magazine(??) I was looking through, but I don't remember the name. It looks like a regular yellow and red Gaillardia but with double blooms. I remember it said it gets about 16 in. tall. I'd really like to find this plant. Help would be greatly appreciated.

It almost looks like a pompom, but not that tight of a bloom.

It isn't Fanfare...that one I have. It's much more double.

I'm going back to that bookstore tomorrow and I'll see if I can find it.

Yea! I found it. It's called 'Dakota Reveille'. Unfortunately, I can't find it anywhere to order. If anyone does, please let me know.
