How to fertilize Gerbera linnaei
Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Gerbera linnaei after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

The buds are dying The other day this plant had beautiful flowering buds, now they've changed color and are dying. The first sign is that they began to fall over and then the stem shriveled up. Is this part of the natural process or am I killing my plant?

I cannnnnoooooot for the life of me get this plant to stop wilting. I water and feed and give moderate sunlight but it just wilts. It does best if I just leave it inside #BarbertonDaisy
