Now that the danger of frost is over (I think at least), I am ordering three 8" pots to put these in and keep them on the deck outside.
I want to free this machine up for a new flower project especially if these are not going to flower anytime soon.

Glad that your daisies are avoiding premature termination! It will be fun to see what they do after transplanting!  |

That's a good idea! Any thoughts on what you'll try next?  |

Had to do some errands and go for another MRI this morning so am now going to finally order some pots. I could not commit to the choices I selected as I don ot want to spend a fortune on them since they most likely wont be used again. I finally have some narrowed down.

This morning I went out and transplanted three of the 4 Gerbera Daisies. I am hoping they do well and blossom. If they do well I will plant more containers to put on the deck and by the front door.
They are sitting on a deck box at the moment waiting for the sun to hit them.

Well after planting they drooped and looked like they were dead from shock. But they did bounce back. I will need to see what they look like this morning when it gets light out.

Water them generously for 2-3 days, until they adapt to soil. They've been growing in water, so they won't really mind having wet feet!  |

These are still outside and still no flower stems. I have a feeling there will be none. But the green leaves are full and lush.

I spoke too soon. I just came in from watering the flowers and in one of the three pots, if I look in the middle of the leaves there is a bud at the dirt so I think it will start to raise and then bloom.
