Beautiful. I tried growing them once but didn't do too well. I love them though because of the pretty bright colors they come in.

They're like carnations - LOTS of water and sun. I have the daisies and carnations next to Den Super Ise and a bunch of sun-lovin' oncidium alliance hybrids.

They are very pretty! I love Gerberas!

However, they are one plant I have also had trouble getting to look nice in the garden. They flower ok, but the plants themselves always look tatty and yuk! I think I may dig them up and put them in some pots.
