How to propagate gerberas?

You can often hear from women that they are madly in love with large daisies and gerberas. The shape of a gerbera really remotely resembles a chamomile and this adorable flower can be of such fabulous colors and shades that you simply cannot convey in words: pink, yellow, red, orange, peach with veins, with transitions of color combinations. How to propagate gerberas on your site so that they continue to please the eye?
There are three ways gerberas breed:

• seminal;
• division;
• grafting.

Gerberas can be divided without taking them out of the soil - it is quite simple and fast, basically all gardeners do this. You can divide gerberas by taking them out of the ground. Take out a flower with a root system and divide it into several parts with a knife. As a result, each piece should have:

• a couple of leaves;
• part of the underground escape;
• part of the root.

Such a harvesting process is more complicated and time-consuming, you need to wait until the harvesting will give roots.
How to propagate gerberas using the cuttings method? Everything is very simple - you need to cut off a part of the stem with a leaf, plant it in a separate special box with heated soil (the required temperature is not lower than 20 degrees).

Any of these breeding methods should be used exclusively in the summer, because it is during this period that gerberas take root and grow well.

Seed propagation is good in spring, you only need to use fresh gerbera seeds. If you have been storing seeds for a long time, then do not expect that all of them will hatch. Seeds tend to lose many of their qualities during long-term storage. Sow beautiful gerbera flowers from March to May, then success in growing is most likely and the opportunity to admire the magic flowers all summer increases threefold.
