Gerbera

Genus: Gerbera.

Species: Gerbera jamesonii.

Common name: Gerbera
Botanic name: Gerbera Jamesonii
Family: Asteraceae

Gerberas are perennials and do best in full sun, in well-drained soil. They will grow in most parts of Australia but are happiest in a warm climate. In cool or moist areas plants need excellent drainage and shelter from the cold. If your soil is poorly drained, grow the plants in a raised garden bed. If you experience wet autumns and winters plant gerberas where they will keep dry during the colder months.
