Product Description
The world's first Hardy Gerbera in a range of bright, zingy neon colours, the Garvinea series was originally launched to great acclaim across Europe. Bringing the popular florists' gerbera flowers to a garden perennial, they give an amazing 7 months of colour from spring to autumn every year - not many plants can do that.
Well, now they have got even better. The breeders in Holland who created them have developed an improved series with much bigger flowers, and even longer lasting performance. called the 'Sweet Series', we are delighted to be able to bring you some of the limited stock.
Retaining the same benefits of being winter hardy to around -8°C (although avoid severe winter wet), and flowering for 3 seasons of colour, their highly distinctive flowers simply keep coming - up to 50 on a 2-year-old plant. We love them in traditional terracotta pots, in the sun, or grown in well-drained borders at the front, where they will amaze you with their persistence of flowering and sheer flower number. In winter they are herbaceous, so die back completely underground, to emerge bigger and better next year.
Supplied as 3 established plants in 7cm pots in a mix of colours that could include red, pink, orange, yellow, and white, ready to plant out.

Plant Information
Top Tips
Plant in full sun and protected from cold winds.
Care Guide
- Garvineas prefer fertile, well-drained, moist soil that has been dug deeply.
- Individually knock out each plant from its container. Look at the roots – if they are circling around the compost, it is best to tease them out. To do this, push your fingers into the rootball along the bottom edge and pull. Do this in a couple of places. This should encourage the roots to spread into the surrounding soil.
- Next use a trowel or spade to create a hole just deep and wide enough to set in the rootball.
- When planting set the crowns slightly above the soil level then firm back around the soil, using your hand for small clumps and your heel on larger areas.
- Water in well to settle the soil and prevent drying out.

Very well packed & around the time promised for delivery.Product:
Plants in very good condition. Sadly 3 out of 6 have been attacked by whatever lurks above & below the earth & have died. 3 plants doing fairly well & blooming. We need some warning when the plants are delivered please so can take some evasive measures. I have since learnt that Gerberas are attacked by all sorts of insects etc.
