Gerbera (Gerbera sp)

Description

A flowering plant with large daisy-shaped flowers which come in a variety of colours.

Care tips

Slant cut the stems and leave for at least four hours in fresh water containing cut flower food. Use once the stems have firmed up. Keep the water level low as the hairy stems allow water to creep up and this promotes botrytis attack. Avoid touching the flower; if one petal is pulled out, the entire flower will fall apart.
