How do you get gerbera Daisy’s to keep blooming?

Every year I tell myself not to buy these, but I can’t resist how pretty and vibrant they are, but I can’t keep them blooming! I use bloom boost. I’ve planted in pots, and this year put right in flower bed. They look healthy, but see no buds, again very disappointed!

you need to dead head the dead flowers and feed with a bloom booster fertilizer once a week in the morning

Hello Nancy, Gerbera only flower once per year!
First, make sure that they get the water and sunlight that you need. Then, make sure that once the blooms fade that you dead head them --- new ones will continue to bud and bloom, but not if the old ones stay on the plant.
