Gerbera Daisies require morning sun to light shade.

They grow best in well-drained soil and can easily rot, so take care not to over-water and to keep the root crown just above the soil line. To minimize fungal diseases, avoid wetting the foliage when watering. Plant them from seed or transplant in fall or late winter for late spring color. Space 12 inches to 15 inches apart. Height depends on variety, but expect an average of 12 inches to 20 inches. Follow a regular watering schedule to establish, then switch to watering deeply, allowing slight (not severe) drying before watering again.
