Gerbera Daisy is commonly grown for its bright and cheerful daisy-like flowers. They originate from South Africa and come in various sizes and colors, including pink, yellow, salmon, orange and white, with flower sizes anywhere from 2 to 5 inches across. There are many gerbera daisy cultivars available, bred for their color and flower shape (single, double, or multiple petals). For better results in how to care for a gerbera daisy plant, choose a variety that’s compact, as flower stems will be sturdier on compact plants, and one that suits the pot size or planting bed you will be growing in.
