Description How to Grow More Info Delivery

With their cheeky faces, bold colours and immense flower power, Gerbera garvinea really earn their place in the garden.

Gerbera garvinea ‘Sweet Memories’ delivers all of this in a compact package - reaching only 30cm high, it is perfect for dainty patio pots or furnishing a border edge with bright and long-lasting colour. The blooms are about 8-9cm across and come in a very unusual colour combination – with a yellow eye encircled by a ruff of white and then a bold outer ring of glowing salmon pink petals. Not only are they a feast for the eyes, but they also provide a banquet for bees and butterflies.

Producing copious flowers from summer through to mid autumn, this generous plant provides plenty of blooms for both the garden and vase displays. Highly resistant to pests and diseases and equipped with excellent weather tolerance, Gerbera 'Memories' delivers a truly incredible performance all summer long! Height and spread: 30cm (12in).

Plant height and spread is seasonal therefore we list by pot size rather than a defined plant size. The height and spread of the plant delivered will vary depending on the season, meaning arrival images are an indication only.

Pot up gerbera plants and grow them on in frost free conditions until large enough to plant outdoors. When they are well grown and all risk of frost has passed, acclimatise them to outdoor conditions over 7 to 10 days before transplanting into their final positions. Plant gerberas outdoors in fertile, well drained soil in sheltered, sunny borders. When growing gerbera in patio containers, use a loam based compost such as John Innes No.2.

Feed and water gerbera plants regularly throughout the growing season. Cut back faded gerbera flowers from the base of the stem. In autumn, move containers of gerbera to a bright, frost free position for the winter. Reduce watering, keeping the compost just moist during winter months. Gerbera plants will require winter protection if grown in borders outdoors.
