Back again 😍 #gerbera #gerbera-garvinea #gerbera-sweet-love

#sweetlove is lovely.

Brilliant...great when they come back..😉

Back with a bang too! ❤❤❤

@novicegardenlover thank you Susan 😊 doing much better than the others but not sure why 😂

@wagsmomthompsonbtinternetcom always think they won’t and then they spring up from nowhere 😜

@jeatacake it’s got more flowers than the other 3 combined! ❤️

A beautiful freak of nature 🤩😍

@jeatacake gotta love a freak 😉🤣

So many flowers what are you feeding it

@alan1111 I have started feeding more with the spare time to do so. I feed with Richard Jackson Flower Power 😁

Chic - Le freak 🎶🎵🎶 😁

Beautiful and what a great bright colour 😊😊❤❤

I love red flowers, that's beautiful Kerry

Colour envy...😘

@midnightgardener thanks Christine 😀

@DeborahBanks thanks Deborah 😃 it’s one of the few reds I have but adore daisies 😛 these are hardy too 😉

@gjones thanks Katy 😄 surprised they’re all still sending up flowers 🤯

@columbiariver not one I have much of but it’s great for these dark days ❤️

@wagsmomthompsonbtinternetcom it’s a bright one for sure 🤩

@gjones the yellow one hasn’t flowered much but thankfully this is more than making up for it ❤️

Wow!💘😍

Great colour ❤🤩

@ShelleySnyder it’s a little bit bright 😜

Just bright enough!💘😍

@gjones I’ve never used a filter on any of my plant photos but this one really looks enhanced. It practically glows 😍

@jeatacake thank you Jeff 😁 it’s like glow in the dark 😅

@ShelleySnyder 😎😉😘

You won't need those lights then 😁😉👍❤

@jeatacake 😂 good thinking 😉

@gjones we aren’t short of those so I’ll give that a try for these insanely coloured blooms. Thanks Katy 😁

Aww poor thing looks cold 😁

It’s gonna be gorgeous though..

@angiecrazycatlady found him hiding under the foliage 😜

@wagsmomthompsonbtinternetcom he’s 1 of 4 still on the plant, reminded me a bit of your spoon petals from summer 😅

You’re right they do..😆👌🏼they’re lovely 😊

@wagsmomthompsonbtinternetcom thank you ☺️

@gjones it’s still going strong. 4 new flowers on it at the moment 😁

@gjones oh no 😫 the non flowering one is non living?

I lost mine through the winter even though they were well mulched. The garvineas are supposed to be frost hardy so I was gutted 😞😞

Are these still outside?

I knew it would be...❤️😘

@gjones I’m sorry ☹️ rip little gerbera 😔

@pelly that’s what I thought 😬 I’ll have to make sure it goes in the greenhouse soon then. I only got them because they said they’re hardy 😜 sorry you lost yours Jane 😟

@jeatacake still outside 🙂 this one has 4 flowers and a load of buds, the yellow one has a fair few buds too

@wagsmomthompsonbtinternetcom they’re smaller than summer but still looking good for November 😛

I never realised they were slightly hardy 👍

@jeatacake they are supposedly hardy to -4 but after reading what happened to Jane’s I think I’ll protect them just to be safe. Although I just looked and they don’t have a long lifespan anyway, only 3 years before they need replacing 😔

Ones I've had never lasted even a year, but they've always been one of the plants I've never had success with 😒 I'd definitely be thinking of bringing it into the greenhouse if it was me.

Gorgeous ❤️

@wagsmomthompsonbtinternetcom thanks Elaine 😄 it has been constantly flowering for months ❤️

@gjones nooooooo! I really thought it would flower for you 😢

@gjones it was making room for something even better 😛

Wow, fabulous 😍😍

@kez001uk They are lovely. Where will you put them during winter?

@pelly thank you 😁

@anges thanks 😊 they’re supposed to be quite hardy so will leave them out unless it’s very bad frosts 😛

@kez001uk Ok, are they outdoor Gerberas? I got a gerbera as a mothers day present and have left it outside all summer and it has flowered like mad. I was thinking of bringing it in the house soon - might split it too. 😊 Thanks.

@anges the 2 I have are outdoors ones 😁 I didn’t realise most weren’t hardy but I checked the card these came with and they go to -5 apparently. I hope so anyway 😂 they seem to flower forever don’t they! I wonder if bringing it in the greenhouse might keep it flowering through winter 🤔 May be worth a try 😋 yours is big enough to split already? 😯 lucky!

@kez001uk I might look out for some outdoor ones, I love the flowers 🌼🌸🌼 Yes I am going to split it and keep it inside I think - decision made! 😁

@anges they’re a real splash of colour out there, recommend them 😁 I didn’t know they were used as indoor plants too, think I’ll look out for one of those 😛

@gjones I’m going to give it a go 😁 I’ll save what I can so will add some of these and the orange one along with your morning glory seeds 😁

@gjones one way of giving you back your flowers 😉😉

Very interesting. I'll be watching to see how you get on with them in the spring 👍

@jeatacake would be amazed if they turn out as well as their parents!

No reason why not. You may even get something new, depending on what genes are there?👍

@jeatacake ooooh I like the sound of something new! I didn’t know that could happen

It can, but growing these from seed could be a challenge, not that I've ever tried.

@jeatacake oh I’m not good with challenge 🤣 my skills are basic at best! Will give it a try anyway, nothing to lose 😛

Absolutely. I try some potentially impossible to grow seeds here, but that is the motto to remember "nothing to lose" 👍

@jeatacake you do seem to get some unusual things to grow 😛 only way to learn is by trying right 😁

Certainly is. Virtually no downside but plenty of upside potentially. 👍

@jeatacake fingers crossed 😋

@gjones thank you ☺️ I think I must have your flowers too 😜

@gjones I’ll send you some back for next year 😉

Fabulous 👍🧡😍

Stunning Kerry 😊 @kez001uk

Wow that's an eye popping colour 😍

@jeatacake cheers Jeff 👍🏼

@vinny3000 thank you Gary 😁

@angiecrazycatlady thanks Angie 😊 it’s definitely not one you can miss 😂

Most welcome 🧡

Lovely red colour 👍📷🌿

@plants thank you Judy ☺️

Very intense colours on these. Superb 👍🧡❤

@gjones thanks Katy ❤️ I wish I could tell you 😂 the only thing I’ve done is deadheading and it’s permanently flowering and has so many buds on the way too

@jeatacake thanks Jeff ☺️ this one in particular is a proper show off 😂

Loads of flowers too 👌

@gjones I have plant food that you’re supposed to feed with every week but I’ve used it about 3 times 😂 ( Richard Jackson’s flower power)

@jeatacake for every flower you can see there’s another on its way. They’ve been brilliant!

It's a great plant. Did you get it this year?

@jeatacake I did, this and the yellow one. I just hope I can get them through winter 🤞🏼

You may need to keep it indoors unless you heat your greenhouse.

@gjones I hope it works and you get some long overdue flowers 😁

@jeatacake I don’t heat it through winter so will just be using it to store things from the frost mainly 😛

@gjones wow that’s an amazing discount! Such a shame that plants aren’t taken care of in some shops but it gets us a bargain and requires just a little effort to make them healthy again 😁 a purple one sounds gorgeous though 💜

It's hot hot hot 🔥🔥🔥
@jeatacake thanks Jeff 😀
@pelly really is a little bright spot out there 🔥
I think I’ll have to look for a red one next year ❤️
Great red colour, lovely flowers ♥️♥️
@gjones thank you Katy 😃 it’s done much better than the other 2 😂
@pelly if I can save seed I’ll send some 😁 usually find it blown all over the garden by time I remember 🤣
I'm going to have to stop liking your flowers Kerry, it must be costing you a fortune in postage 😂 I never thought of collecting seeds from these. I have a pink one with its last flower, I'll have to keep an eye on it 👁🗨
@midnightgardener thank you Chris 😄 they’re a nice splash of colour this late on ❤️
@pelly I’m always happy to share 😛 usually when it gets to the dandelion stage I mean to put a bag over it but always forget 🤪 seed collecting is a right old faff 😆
