Question
I live in Delaware.  Are gerbera Daisies perennials? When should I plant them? Thanks

Answer
Hello Trish

Thank you for your question.

Gerbera are native to Africa and Asia - hot regions - where they are perennial.  As Delaware is in the north east of the USA and therefore not tropical(!) Gerbera should be treated as a tender plant and grown indoors - preferably in a glass-house.  If you have a particularly nice (hot) summer they can be put on display outside for a while.
