ORANGE GERBERA WITH GREEN STAMENS

Although gerbera flowers have only really boomed in popularity over the last 30 years, they’ve actually been around for a really long time. Native to South Africa, America and Asia, they were first discovered in 1727 by a Dutch botanist who named the flower after another botanist, Traugott Gerber. They were introduced to the UK in the 19th century. So, they’re relatively new for us compared to other flowers.

In the 1970s, gerberas became pretty popular as cut flowers. And since then, they’ve only grown more and more loved thanks to their super vibrant colours! They’re cultivated all over the world, and you’ll no doubt see them a lot in spring and summer bouquets and gardens.

With advantages of a robust plant with double petals, dense flowers, strong yield, vibrant color, and large, healthy leaves, orange with green stamens is a classic color that the market prefers. However, the bloom stem will get shorter after harvesting for more than three years. Ideal for potted planting and branch cutting.
