Gerber Daisy
Gerbera jamesonii
(GER-ber-uh) (jay-mess-OWN-ee-eye)
Yesterday while purchasing
some Pansies this Gerber was sitting on top of a nursery cart full of hundreds
of the daisies in full bloom. Even though it is a super busy and big wholesale
nursery I had to pull my cart over and get a picture of this pale rider as the
sun lit it up from the back. The cart was dripping with snobbism and the
flowers seemed a bit haughty. I have to admit it was a beautiful sight to see
the daisies in such colors and at their peak.
We also scored some Nemesia,
Bacopa and Ranunculus for some big containers, the pots came out nice and all
they have to do is make it through tomorrow night when a brief period of
freezing weather is expected. The flowers have been acclimated at the nursery
so we will just have to wait and see what happens.
