The Patio Gerbera


 
 

 
 
 
 
Gerbera  is a genus of ornamental plants from the sunflower family. Which was named in honour of the German botanist and naturalist Traugott Gerber

The  Patio Gerbera is fluffy, bright  and enchanting. Plant in a beautiful pot  and place on your terrace it is an extension of sunshine colour and beauty!
 
 

Planting
Start with mini seedling/cups/pots containers. Leave on a sunny windowsill to germinate.
As soon as the plant germinates and you can see a sprout transfer to a bigger pot
if however they are going directly into pots  plant them approximately 13 cm/ 5" in diameter. These are sun plants so try to give them some sun once in a while. Be mindful of frost and protect it from the cold months.
 
 
These flowers  come a varying colours and will form a few months after sowing to beautiful full bloom flowers!
Water freely during the warmer and hot months, however, water sparingly during winter and cold spells.

Gift it stylishly! :)
