I like Gerberas. They are so pretty.
I've never tried growing them though.
I hope they enjoy wherever you decide to plant them :)

Depends on the variety as to whether they survive the winter Holly, we have some that have come through two and others just rotted off, I love them because they flower for ages and they are such attractive place plants.

See the answer I posted to your question.
They should be fine, just keep them watered.
Mine sometimes lean over and wilt, but a good watering, and they stand back up within an hour or two.
