“Barberton daisy is the common name for the Gebera Jamesonii, also known as the Transvaal or Gerbera daisy. The large range of striking flower colors has enabled this flowering pot plant to become a popular house plant choice for a number of years.
Native to South Africa this species is a perennial in warmer climates but in cooler countries (temperate regions) it’s grown as an annual and flowering pot plant.
The Barberton daisy is available in many colors from white through to bright red and different shades as well. The hybrids sold in garden centers produce two or more single stemmed stalks with a single flower sitting at the top. The capitula (flower head) is approximately 3 – 4 inches wide and displays multiple soft petals from a centrepiece of stamens, anthers, and carpels that look outstanding close up. Grown indoors they can flower at any time of the year and each flower lasts up to about 4 – 6 weeks.
Favourable Condition: Average temperatures of 55 – 75°F (13 – 24°C) are suitable. A lover of direct sunlight and bright windowsills. Place close to a south, east or west facing window to provide enough sunlight.It’s best to keep the soil moist at all times. Once the soil becomes slightly dry to the touch provide water straight away or the plant will begin to wilt very quickly.”
