Gerbera Delight!

The gerbera is a flower that is often overlooked. Its bright colours and open blooms just seem to exude happiness.

The gerbera is closely related to the sunflower and belongs to the same family. It is a very popular plant and is most often used as a garden plant or in cut flower arrangements.

After the rose, carnation, chrysanthemum and tulip the gerbera is the most popular plant in the world.

There are many gerbera arrangements availble at Flowers24hours.co.uk., to suite just about any taste or mood. This is a great flower to give in the summer as it will only improve an individual’s general mood, and it is quite hardy so it can withstand summer heat a little better than other flowers.

The soft tones of the Peaches bouquet is sure to fit any colour scheme, you can’t go wrong with this arrangement. If you are looking to give a gift to a younger recipient: My First Handbag, inludes a felt handbag with gliter flowers, as well as a comb and mirror set. To make a little girl feel a bit more grown up!

The bright variety of colours in Fresh as a Daisy, are sure to catch your recipients eye. The green foliage found in this arrangement only adds to the contrast of colours. For someone who likes simple beauty, Bliss is the perfect gift, this arrangement is really a focus on colour, including only gerberas.

Finally, one of my personal favourites is the Potted Gerbera arrangement. This bouquet really puts a focus on the flowers themselves. Hand-tied gerberas are placed in a simple tin bucket, they are sure to brighten up any spot you place them!
