Description

Red Fantasy is a bright red Gerbera daisy I have planted in my front yard. The tiny red petals form the beautiful flower, with its lush green leaves. It is a small red flower but still very pretty. Gerbera is a genus of plants in the Daisy family, named after German botanist and doctor Traugott Gerber. It is native to South America, Africa and Asia. It is also commonly known as the African Daisy. They are very widely use as a decorative garden plant or house cut flowers. It is the 5th most used cut flower in the world. It is a perrenial plant and attracts bees, butterflies and birds, but resistant to deer and they thrive in moist soil.
