I have grown Garvineas for the first time, how should I protect them?

Our Advice:

This form of gerbera is relatively hardy and can withstand several degrees of frost. Unless the winter is really savage they can stay outside, but protect the pots with bubble wrap to avoid any root damage. If we get a lot of rain move the plants to a more sheltered place, as they don't like prolonged cold, wet periods.
