Seeds and petals of a Gerbera daisy flower on compost

Gerbera daisy seeds

Recently the flower my Gerbera Daisy came with from the shop (the one currently used as my icon on my Instagram ) decided it had had enough and gave up on being a flower.

I tried giving it some water (being aware I had been overwatering previously I’ve started waiting until a slight wilt before watering) but that didn’t help. The leaves and the other flower head looked happy so I figured it must be its time.

I noticed when chopping the flower that it had started producing seeds, so thought it might be worth a punt putting them in some compost, see if I get any more plants. I’m not holding my breath though!

If they do germinate I’m gong to be overwhelmed with Gerbera Daisy plants! Anyone want one?!
