Day Three - Mini Gerbera 'Navelino'

Day Three - Mini Gerbera 'Navelino'





Today it's the turn of a mini Gerbera called 'Navelino' he is bright orange with a yellow centre.




The Gerbera's common name is Transvaal Daisy.




They are avaliable in virtualy every colour & you can even have your own colour Gerbera created for you which I discovered when I needed blue ones for a Wedding!




They are avaliable all year round & are mostly imported from Holland, Israel, California, Canada & Colombia. They are the fifth most used cut flower in the world.




Their meaning is pretty & strong & enduring purity. They were named in honour of the German Botanist & Naturalist Traugott Gerber.
