What is the best month for Gerbera daisies?

Gerbera daisies are good to grow in zones 8-10, they are perennials in mild winter climates, annuals in the colder climates. If you are planting seeds, don't sow them until you know winter is completely over, if they are plants same thing. They need full sun except for very hot areas and a moist well drained soil liberally supplemented with peat moss or compost. Plant them 12-15 inches apart, feed with a 5-10-10 fertilizer scattered around each plant, and scratching it into the soil, every other month til late fall, if you daisies are not blooming well add a little liquid feed[follow mixing directions]. These plants can be divided after they start getting crowded, in about 3-4 years or sooner if you are a green thumb-er. Happy Growing!!!!!!!!!

What is the best month for Gerbera daisies?
I would say late spring, and early summer. I think they bloom best during those months.
