Gerbera plants thrive in full sun to partial shade, needing 6 to 8 hours of light daily for peak blooming. They prefer rich, well-draining soil with a pH of 6.0 to 6., enhanced with compost or organic matter for best results. Good drainage is key to prevent root rot, and moderate temperatures between 6°F and 7°F suit them well, though they tolerate heat with proper care. Adequate air circulation around the foliage helps fend off fungal issues in humid climates.
Start these Dhara Seeds indoors 8 to weeks before the last frost, sowing to seeds per cell in sterile potting mix at 70°F to 7°F. Position the pointed end down and barely cover, as they need light to germinate in 7 to 1 days. Transplant outdoors after hardening off, spacing 1to 18 inches apart in a sunny spot.

Keep soil consistently moist but not soggy during germination and early growth, watering gently to avoid disturbing seeds. Once established, provide 1 inch of water weekly, aiming at the base to keep leaves dry and reduce disease risk. In containers, monitor moisture closely, as they dry out faster, and let the top inch of soil dry between waterings. Mulch helps retain hydration and keeps roots cool, especially in summer heat.
