OEBBEBA JAMESONn. 



Is Gerbera Jamesonii a hardy plant 

 in Ohio? Does it require the same 

 treatment as the Shasta daisy and does 

 it belong to the daisy family! If not 

 hardy in Ohio, can it be grown there 

 to bloom for a summer crop? Is it good 

 for cut flowers for florists? When 

 should it be planted on the gulf coast, 

 in Mississippi? I have several thou- 

 sand seeds of this gerbera and wish to 

 try them in both Mississippi and Ohio. 



S. C. M.— Miss. 



Yes, Gerbera Jamesonii belongs to the 

 daisy family in the sense that it is a 

 member of the asteracese, the family 

 which comprises most of the so-called 

 daisies. In fact, this species of gerbera 

 is frequently, and appropriately, called 

 the Transvaal daisy, as it is a native 

 of that region of South Africa. It is 

 also referred to sometimes as a scarlet 

 marguerite. 



Though a perennial, it is regarded as 

 only half-hardy and would not endure 

 the Ohio winters unless well protected. 

 In cold climates it is often wintered suc- 

 cessfully in coldframes. In southern 

 Mississippi, however, it would probably 

 be an entirely satisfactory outdoor 

 plant, thriving in almost any well 

 drained soil, though a rich, sandy loam 

 is particularly suitable and an admix- 

 ture of peaty substance is considered 

 beneficial. It is easily grown from seed, 

 planted early in the spring, and com- 

 mences to flower the first year, though 

 older plants bloom more abundantly. 

 As a cut flower it is excellent, having 

 good lasting qualities and a stiff, wiry 

 stem, a foot or more in length. On ac- 

 count of its long flowering season, it is 

 especially desirable as a pot plant for 

 tho window or show house.
