Press seeds lightly into the soil surface; they need light to germinate. Maintain a temperature of 70-75°F (21-24°C) and keep the soil moist. Germination typically occurs in 14-21 days. Once seedlings have two sets of true leaves, transplant them into individual pots and gradually acclimate them to outdoor conditions before planting in the garden after the danger of frost has passed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChoose a sunny location with well-drained soil. Water regularly, allowing the soil to dry slightly between waterings. Mulch around plants to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Deadhead spent flowers to encourage continued blooming. In cooler zones, dig up plants before frost and overwinter indoors, or treat as annuals.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e200 Deep Red Gerbera Daisy seeds (\u003cem\u003eGerbera jamesonii\u003c\/em\u003e).\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67776180126006,"sku":"FOLIA-345","price":27.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0994\/4884\/8694\/files\/il_fullxfull.7329348365_fzhu.jpg?v=1792468230","url":"https:\/\/blakesflora.com\/products\/200-deep-red-gerbera-daisy-seeds-gerbera-jamesonii-bright-cut-flower-perennial","provider":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
