Somone told me that you can keep Gerber Daisies over the winter. Anyone have any luck? If so, how did you do it?
Thanks for your replies.:watering

I kept a potted gift gerbera daisy indoors over the winter. It survived in a cool, north facing window (but didn't flower).

I put it outside on the deck when warm weather came, and it thrived and flowered. It did dry up every other day and wilt though. I plan on overwintering it again this fall.

Good luck. They are so nice.

AH! I had these at my wedding, I soooo love them. :)

Only one was potted as it was gift from my mom for our wedding party table. I kept it through the winter inside in a south facing window. Again no bloom, but it did bloom on our porch the following spring. However, it didn't make it past that summer... we were too dry and I wasn't keeping up with it well enough. :(
