Gerbera daisies are so vividly colored that they can sometimes make you wonder if they’re real. Native to South Africa, Gerbera jamesonii<\/em> is in the Aster <\/em>family, alongside sunflowers<\/a>. Gerbera daisies today are the result of hybridization techniques.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In most parts of the United States, Gerberas are tender perennials that come back every year. In cold winter zones without winter protection, these plants are treated as annuals. They are best planted in spring after all chances of frost have passed. Gerbera daisies can be grown from seed outside in containers and garden beds. They’ll establish themselves at a moderate pace, delivering their first flowers within 14 to 18 weeks and continuing to bloom throughout the summer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The large flower heads of these daisies have ray-like petals around a center disk of tiny green or black flowers. There are four different classes of Gerbera daisies: single flower, semi-double flower, double flower, and spider flower. Each class delineates the number, position, and type of petals. The leaves of the plant are lobed or pinnate and often toothed.<\/p>\n\"Facebook\"<\/a>\"twitter\"<\/a>\"youtube\"<\/a>\"instagram\"<\/a>\"mail\"<\/a>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
