There must have been a stray seed in that lot of seeds that my friend had given me. I saw this plant but did not know what it was until this flower emerged.
This Gaillardia has a single row of petals but normally they come in several layers.
Yet another addition and I hope to preserve the seeds.

No. Gaillardia is Gaillardia and Zinnia is Zinnia (lol)

@allknowing but the flower and its petals are just the same, even the leaves are the same.
