Weather is cooling down

Here it is just past the middle of March and the days and nights are a little cooler. Some gerberas love the cooler weather, and you can see quite a change. One pink one that has been a disaster all summer - it throws plentiful blooms but none are of commercial quality - is now settling down and for the first time this year some of the flowers will be suitable for the market.

Others that love the hot summer days are "having a rest" right now. We do need to get rid of excess foliage right now - hopefully we will have completed this major task by the end of April.
