Gerberas come in many different varieties and colours. What makes each one special, however, is its intense, vibrant colour. Even the centre of the flower radiates joy. As well as the standard gerbera, which has a flower size of approximately 9 to 13 centimetres, there is also the mini gerbera, also known as a germini. These are slightly smaller, with flowers measuring approximately 6 to 8 centimetres in diameter. No matter which gerbera you prefer, you can easily have your bouquet delivered anywhere in the Netherlands. This can be to someone's home, a business address, or even a hospital.
The gerbera blooms all year round and is incredibly versatile, which is why it is a favourite of ours as florists. They can be arranged perfectly with other flowers. Combining them with delicate flowers such as roses and carnations creates a truly loving bouquet — a special way to express gratitude. The gerbera is a cheerful flower and is therefore perfect for celebrations, making it a welcome addition to our congratulatory bouquets. They are also often used to add a touch of colour and charm to seasonal bouquets.
Fun fact: did you know that the gerbera was named after the German physician Traugott Gerber by Jan Frederik Gronovius, the former mayor of Leiden? This was quite a while ago, in 1737, to be precise. As well as being mayor, Gronovius was an amateur botanist and travelled to South Africa, where he discovered the then-unnamed gerbera. Why he decided to name the flower after a German physician remains unclear almost three centuries later. What we do know is that Gerber was the director of a botanical garden in Russia. However, how the two knew each other, and why he was given the honour of naming this beautiful flower, will likely always remain a mystery.
