WAKE UP A WINDOW WITH GERBERA DAISIES

"Bringing the warmth and cheer of plants inside is especially important during the colder months," says Amy. "And gerbera daisies are an excellent choice because they come in a variety of colors, are easy to care for and bloom in the winter!" For an eye-catching indoor windowsill display, drop gerbera daisy plants into colorful pots equipped with drainage holes, then set atop round gift boxes to raise the blooms to different heights for added visual interest. Give bright sun near a window (they don't require full sun all day) and water when the top inch of soil is dry. Amy also suggests moving the pots outside in the spring, when temperatures reach at least 60 degrees.
