The groundbreaking Gerbera Garvinea® series has transformed gerberas from a tender patio plant to a hardy border perennial in just a decade. These prolific, weather-tolerant hardy gerberas are endlessly cheerful, producing profusions of bold blooms in a range of vibrant colours from June all the way through to October. Rising above a mound of lush, glossy foliage, the large, daisy-like flowers are a florist’s favourite and will brighten up any border or container for year after year. Gerbera Garvinea® ‘Sweet Sparkle’ produces radiant hot pink blooms 9cm across all summer through to mid autumn. Height and spread: 45cm (18″).
. Pot up gerbera plants and grow them on in frost free conditions until large enough to plant outdoors. When they are well grown and all risk of frost has passed, acclimatise them to outdoor conditions over 7 to 10 days before transplanting into their final positions. Plant gerberas outdoors in fertile, well drained soil in sheltered, sunny borders. When growing gerbera in patio containers, use a loam based compost such as John Innes No.2.
