Externally, the gerbera strongly resembles a daisy. Only the petals of its flowers can be painted in a wide variety of colors - yellow, pink, crimson.

There are several dozen types of gerberas, most of which grow in Africa and Madagascar.

Discovery history

The very first gerbera was described by the Dutch botanist Jan Gronovinus in the 18th century. He named the flower in honor of his friend German botanist Traugott Gerber. Later, Karl Linnaeus, engaged in the systematization of plants, used this name in his works. From the end of the 19th century, gerberas began to be widely cultivated.

Botanical description

Gerbera, like chamomile - a perennial plant. Unlike the latter, gerbera leaves have an elongated shape, are pointed at the end and grow from the rosette. Peduncles of this plant can reach a height of 60 cm. Flowers are collected in single inflorescences baskets. The inflorescences of some species of gerberas can be up to 30 cm in diameter.

Gerbera has a long flowering. Often a flower bed with these flowers pleases the eye for several months. Due to this feature, gerberas are often used in gardening of cities and suburban areas.

Gerber growing

Now gerberas are grown mainly in the form of hybrids. They are successfully cultivated in almost any climatic zones. Because of the spectacular shape of the flowers, this plant is often used in bouquets. Cut gerberas can be kept in water for up to 20 days. To keep them standing for a long time, it is recommended to pour only a small amount of water into the vase so that the stem does not have time to rot.

More than 1000 varieties of gerberas are known, each of which is distinguished by the shape of the inflorescence and the color of the petals. There are varieties with pink, white, orange, red, yellow, black color of flowers. Breeders have not yet managed to achieve only one color of the petals of the gerbera - blue. Some gerberas can have petals of different colors on one flower.

Gerbera prefers to grow in a sunny place. It should be watered so that the water does not fall into the rosette of leaves - otherwise the plant will rot and die.

If high gerberas are good in a flower bed, in closed rooms they prefer to grow dwarf varieties of this plant. For the gerbera to blossom, it needs a short daylight day and good ventilation.

Fine( 8 ) Poorly( 1 )

Flowers, similar to daisies, a lot. Among the most popular ones, one can single out rudbeckia, echinacea, erigeron (small-scale-dormitory), buzulnik and, of course, beloved asters. All these flowers, like the actual daisies, are indispensable in the landscape design of the garden. Especially if your site is broken rock garden or rockeries. The apparent simplicity of these plants is favorably set off by ferns, conifers and other perennials.

Native Russian flower, chamomile is appropriate not only in the field, but also in the garden. Of course, this is not about the pharmaceutical chamomile with small flowers, but about its larger sisters. These include plants with chamomile-like flowers. All of them, like chamomile, belong to the Compound family. These plants, similar to daisies, although differ in the names of species and even genera, but have much in common in their "habits".

On this page, you will find out how the flowers look like multi-colored daisies, and how they look.

Garden flowers such as perennial asters are very similar to daisies.


For example, alpine aster (Asfer alpinus). Her flowers are painted in pink, blue, lilac and white colors, the latter - poured chamomile, only a sprout of only 25 cm.

Alpine aster blooms in May, much earlier than daisies, but also magnificently and rather long.

But other types of asters bloom only in the fall, which can be credited to them, because at this time there are not enough flowers.

It's asters new english  and new belgian (A. nobo-angliae, A. novo-belgii). These are already tall, and sometimes very tall, human-sized bushes, powerful, fluffy. Do not ask me how to distinguish one from another. Varieties mass, they differ in terms of flowering and flower color.

New British and New Belgian asters, perhaps, live longer than others. Their bushes become thicker and more voluminous from year to year. Only their middle can thin out a little.

This photo shows flowers that look like daisies:

What other flowers look like daisies, and how are they called? Yellow daisies are, of course, bouzulniki. Their "flowers" are collected in a variety of shields, panicles or brushes that adorn the garden throughout the second half of summer. Perhaps they are knocked out of the ranks of daisies that are more moisture-loving. Do you want a pet? Get any! Species are extremely unpretentious, varietal with a purple leaf, too, only for spotted varieties so far it is worth looking at.


Most grow dense bush, but there are also aggressors - siberian buzulnik (Ligularia sibirica).

More on yellow daisies look like rudbeckia. Here the most important size of the “flower” is that it is impressive in rudbecky.


Mostly grown brilliant rudbeckia (Rudbeckia fulgida)  and hybrid varieties in yellow-brown tones. Rudbecks as a whole are short-lived, it is worth monitoring their periodic replanting and dividing.

The following describes what other flowers look like daisies.

From colorful flowers, similar to chamomile, can be identified pink echinacea. Although why pink?


This is a species echinacea purpurea (Echinacea purpurea)  dark pink flowers.

And her varieties have no shades! White, yellow, greenish, orange, pale pink, almost crimson! And sometimes thick hemispherical centers, like pompons. Echinacea grow quite slowly, but they live longer than chamomile. But it is also desirable to divide them in three years.

Well, for a snack tiny chamomile for rock garden. These are mountain small-scale brilliants, forming dense curtains, pressed to the ground. Place them, of course, on a hill, among the pebbles, in the same rocky dumping. There are a lot of hillock small-scalers; many can be recommended, for example, Erigeron scopulinus.

It is better to divide and replant daisy-like flowers in spring, as soon as the snow melted. Then they will not even notice the execution and will bloom in the summer, as if nothing had happened. You can multiply daisies and seeds, it is easier than the easy: throwing seeds into the ground - and they germinate. Seedlings develop quickly. When collecting your seeds, keep in mind that there are a large percentage of defective seeds in the flowers.

These are so unpretentious plants that it is difficult to notice the pests and diseases on them. It happens that slugs spoil the foliage, it happens that in a wet year the chamomile partially rot. But usually this stuff, for plants not destructive.

Chamomile garden landscaping (with photos)

Well, now, about the daisy itself. What we take for a big flower with a yellow (most often) center is actually an inflorescence of two types of flowers: one, external, we think are petals, others, internal flowers, we take for stamens. Actually, because the family is called that the flowers are so tricky, complex.

But in the culture of chamomile simple. Probably, their only drawback is relative fragility. They grow rapidly, develop rapidly, but after three years they start to grow. This is easily "treated" - by division.


That white charm with a fragrant yellow center, which is found in the fields and in the village gardens, - daisy meadow, or daisy (Leucanthemum vulgare).


He lives not for long, but is sown herself - know only remove unnecessary seedlings. But in the design of the garden such a daisy is irreplaceable - it decorates any flower beds with its radiant whiteness. Care - no. A similar daisy, only in a larger size, is the largest (L maximum). It is more lasting. And she has several varieties, of which the most attractive are usually terry.

Daisies are unanimous in their attitude to light: they love him, and they are best planted in full sun. To eat daisies, too, do not mind, only on oily soil, they grow up faster.
