Key features

• •One of our most popular flower seeds is Gerbera. These wonderfully rose flowering plants make great bedding plants in the South and are often used as a cut flower in the North. Gerberas are a tender perennial.
• •Gerbera daisies are 8 - 10 inch tall perennial flowers growing in USDA zones 8 - 11 or as indoor house plants.
• •They grow everywhere as a colorful annual, and have a tremendously long bloom season. They are also a good bedding item, and of course a mainstay of the cutting garden. The flower loves full sun or partial shade and appreciates deep, rich soil.
• •Sowing Rate: 2 - 3 seeds per plant. Sow Gerbera flower seeds indoors 8 - 10 weeks before the last frost. Use starter trays and sterile potting mix. Place the pointed end of the flower seed down when sowing, and barely cover the seeds as they need light to germinate. Transplant outdoors once danger of frost has passed.
• •You may also sow gerbera seed directly outdoors when soil temperatures are warm.
