Gerbera Daisy (Gerbera jamesonii)

Inside is a potted garden flower Peter brought Betty Lou for Mother's Day. It is a Gerbera Daisy (Gerbera jamesonii), famous for its bright color variations. This native plant of South Africa wants a way warmer climate than New Hampshire to survive as an outdoor perennial, so it is a house plant here.
