Spring, also known as springtime, is one of the four temperate seasons, succeeding winter and preceding summer. There are various technical definitions of spring, but local usage of the term varies according to local climate, cultures and customs. When it is spring in the Northern Hemisphere, it is autumn in the Southern Hemisphere and vice versa. At the spring (or vernal) equinox, days and nights are approximately twelve hours long, with daytime length increasing and nighttime length decreasing as the season progresses.
Spring and "springtime" refer to the season, and also to ideas of rebirth, rejuvenation, renewal, resurrection and regrowth. Subtropical and tropical areas have climates better described in terms of other seasons, e.g. dry or wet, monsoonal or cyclonic. Cultures may have local names for seasons which have little equivalence to the terms originating in Europe. Source Wikipedia.

In the Southern Hemisphere, spring has gently arrived, bringing with it the peaceful beauty of blooming flowers and calm, sunny days.
Gerbera, also known as the African daisy, is native to tropical regions of Africa and has been successfully introduced to Latin American and Southeast Asian countries. This species is extensively used as a decorative garden plant or as cut flowers. The domesticated cultivars are primarily hybrids of Gerbera jamesonii and Gerbera viridifolia, referred to as Gerbera × hybrida.
Scientific classification:
Kingdom:Plantae
Clade:Tracheophytes
Clade:Angiosperms
Clade:Eudicots
Clade:Asterids
Order:Asterales
Family:Asteraceae
Subfamily:Mutisioideae
Tribe:Mutisieae
Genus:Gerbera
Thousands of cultivars exist, exhibiting significant variation in shape, size, and color, including white, yellow, orange, red, and pink. The flower-heads (capitula) range from 7 cm in diameter (Gerbera 'mini Harley') to 12 cm (Gerbera ‘Golden Serena’). The centre of the flower is sometimes black, and often the same flower can have petals of several different colours. Gerbera exhibits a bimodal blooming pattern in temperate climates, with flowering periods in late spring to early summer and late summer to early autumn. Despite being a perennial, it is cultivated as an annual in regions experiencing severe frost.
