A single flower of orange gerbera showing the beauty and detail of this member of the sunflower family.
Gerbera is a genus of the family of sunflowers, Daisies and Asters - Asteraceae, with a wide distribution from Africa to Madagascar, tropical Asia and South America. The meanings of gerbera flowers stem from those attributed to the general daisy family, including innocence and purity. Daisies are also a classic symbol of beauty however, the gerbera variety holds an added meaning of cheerfulness, which stems from the massive array of colors resulting from hybridisation.
