- Comments
- Gaillardia X grandiflora is a commercial hybrid between G. aristata and G. pulchella that sometimes escapes. The only two Watershed records are by a street in Del Norte (Rio Grande Co, 2013) and by Hwy 285 in Villa Grove (Saguache Co, 2017). The species is perennial, and the Del Norte plant lasted for three or four years. BONAP shows locations in Bernalillo and Doña Ana counties, New Mexico, but no other locations farther down the Rio Grande drainage.
