Gaillardia henricksonii grows in soil derived from gypsum. It is an perennial herb up to 20 cm (7.9 in) tall, with a large taproot and leaves on the stem rather than clumped at the base. Leaves are long and narrow, up to 5 cm (2.0 in) long, covered with woolly hairs. Each flower head is about 1.5 cm (0.59 in) wide. Each head has 8 salmon-colored ray flowers surrounding 60-80 reddish or brownish disc flowers.[2]
It is named for American botanist James Solberg Henrickson. It was first published in Wrightia 5(8): 305–307, f. 41. 1976.[3]
