Expert Answer

Yes, they can. Place them in a hole 8-10 inches deep with 18 inches between each plant. They prefer full sun with a little afternoon shade. Allow the soil to dry a little between waterings. Fertilize occasionally.

Expert Answer

Gerbera daisies bloom most consistently with at least four hours of full sun a day. Adding African violet fertilizer will also help. Keep the plant slightly moist.

Expert Answer

Gerbera daisies need full watering with a few days in between. They need full sun and fertilizer every few weeks. Deadhead the plant every fall and replant it in late fall.
