To be honest, the temperature of soil in most borders may not drop as low as that in pots, so provided the site doesn't get waterlogged in winter I don't see any reason why they shouldn't flourish.
thanks adam i will look out for them
The last lot of so called hardy gerberas I had, produced one flower in a season and then promptly died. Waste of money.
figet.. maye it was an outdoor one
What is hardy in Cornwall, is not very often hardy up here. Cannas are hardy in cornwall. If I leave mine out I can wave good bye.
i have cannas still outside its the first year for me so i hope they will overwinter in the greenhouse
I too was dissapointed with my Gerberas I've not even had a flower this year.
