Fresh
Cut Gerbera
Gerberas come in a multitude of colors.
Some colors are white, pink, salmon, yellow, red, orange and more.
Gerberas are not affected by exposure to ethylene gas but gravity causes stem
bending. For this reason, you will cut gerbera under water, "Quick
Dip", and place in water with flower solution, and hang in meshed support
or shipping tray when first hydrating to keep stems straight.
Gerbera's keep 7-18 days. With
Gerberas, more water is lost through the stems then the flower. So
care should be taken with the stems. Store at 33-35F
Fluoride in water sources can cause
petal tip burn, but fresh flower food solutions can prevent this disorder.
