Gerbera daisies (Gerbera jamesonii) are useful as cut flowers, pot crops, and bedding plants planted outdoors in full sun. They can be planted in dish gardens, mixed containers, patio pots, or traditional containers for use as holiday and seasonal gifts. The rich green, leafy foliage gives rise to 3-1/2- to 5-inch blooms that may be red, orange, yellow, salmon, pink, or white.

OBS

The flowers can be single, double, quilled or crested double on long stems. Although they are perennial in very warm climates, they are generally treated as annuals.
