The Great $1 Gerber Daisy Experiment

Can it really be this easy??

The only thing better than a New plant is a 

deal on a New plant.  All specimens in this experiment 

were bought for 1/3 or less of their marked retail price.   

A quick trim, removal from very cramped pot, regular

 watering, top dressing of compost and TaDa their Back! 

Step 1-Fill one 3-inch potting container with potting soil

 for each stem cutting.

Step 2-Find healthy and vibrant gerbera daisies in the 

summer during the peak of growth. Clip off a stem just

 above soil level and then cut the stem again so that you 

have a 6-inch stem piece. 

Step 3-Dip the bottom end of the stem into rooting

 hormone and place the stem into the potting soil.

Step 4-Keep the containers where they receive 

indirect sunlight, and watch for the stems to show

 signs of growth. This will indicate that the stems

 are taking root. Continue to keep them evenly watered.

Step 5-Transplant your new super discounted gerbera 

daisies to larger containers when they are established 

and growing well.
