Collection: Gerbera

Asteraceae, or the daisy family, includes the genus Gerbera. About 30 different types of flowering plants make up this genus, all of which are endemic to the tropics of South America, Africa, and Asia. With its daisy-like blooms in a rainbow of colors and a wide range of sizes and forms, the gerbera is one of the most widely used ornamental flowers. The German botanist Traugott Gerber is honored with the eponymous genus name "Gerbera." This flower's connotation has long been linked to happiness and purity, making it a popular option for celebrations ranging from weddings and anniversaries to prom and graduations. The Gerbera is not just significant symbolically, but also because of the belief that it may alleviate stress and anxiety.
