Gerber Daises

 Ger­ber Daisies

Mean­ing: Beau­ty & Innocence
Buy­ing & Caring:

  • When buy­ing Ger­ber daisies (aka Ger­beras), look for flow­ers with stems that are firm and not bent near the flower head. Make sure the petals are not falling off or bent. They will turn brown quick­ly if they’ve been creased.
  • Some florists slide a Ger­bera straw up the stem to help sup­port the flower head.
  • Keep the water in the vase of your ger­beras fresh, but at a low lev­el. Ger­beras love to drink water. If you put too much in the vase, the flower will drink it up and then become heavy and fall over. Replace the water every three days with cold water and watch the lev­el close­ly so it does not dry out.
