Gerbera
Gerbera, also known as Gerbera jamesonii or Barberton Daisy, is a vibrant and cheerful flowering plant prized for its striking, daisy-like blooms. Native to South Africa, Gerbera features large, colorful flowers in a variety of hues, including red, pink, orange, yellow, and white. These flowers are characterized by their bold, round petals and long-lasting beauty, making them popular for both indoor arrangements and garden beds. Gerbera typically grows to about 12 to 18 inches in height, with lush, dark green foliage that enhances its colorful blooms. It thrives in well-draining soil and prefers bright, indirect light, though it can tolerate some direct sunlight. Regular watering is important, keeping the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Gerbera adds a splash of vibrant color and a touch of elegance to any space. At Balaji Blossoms, we offer high-quality Gerbera plants to brighten your home or garden with their stunning blooms.
