Gerbera flowers - aesthetic garden decoration

A beautifully blooming garden is the dream of every amateur gardener, but it is far from always possible to take care of plants regularly, and some flowers require constant care. Among the unpretentious flowers, chamomiles are most often sown in gardens, but if the simplicity of their colors is quite primitive, then you should pay attention to gerbera flowers.

Gerberas are grown not only in gardens, but also as indoor plants. At the same time, potted plants are often less whimsical than those that grow in gardens.

Gerbera flowers should be planted in sunny and well-lit areas. The optimum temperature for growing gerberas is + 22-24 degrees, although they can easily tolerate the heat, but with sufficient watering. Gerbera seedlings are planted only when the air temperature does not drop below +16 degrees at night, most often it is the end of May or the beginning of June.

Despite the need for moisture to survive the heat, gerbera should be watered in moderation under normal conditions. Some gardeners recommend watering the plant not under the bush, but the soil near it. Watering must be done very carefully so that water does not get into the leaf outlet.

Gerbera flowers persist for a long time after cutting, so they are most often grown for this very purpose. In appearance, it represents a rosette of petals at the base. Despite the simplicity of the structure of the flower, gerbera flowers look very aesthetically pleasing and attractive. The colorfulness of the flowers is very impressive, as the colors of gerberas range from white and pale pink to bright red and burgundy.
