Description
An absolutely beautiful red Gerbera Daisy was presented to my Mom on Mother's Day at church, May 8th, 2016.
This majestic and stunning plant, grown as a perennial in warmer climates, is related to sunflowers, chrysanthemums, dahlias, marigolds and zinnias in the large and diverse Asteraceae plant family.
The Gerbera daisy was named in honor of Traugott Gerber, 18th-century German botanist and medical doctor.
It is native to the tropical areas of South America, Africa and Asia, and it is the fifth most popular cut flower worldwide, after the rose, carnation, chrysanthemum and tulip.
Each and every day of the year, may we honor our precious Mothers who have given so much of themselves to make this world a better place.
"An excellent woman [one who is spiritual, capable, intelligent, and virtuous], who is he who can find her? Her value is more precious than jewels and her worth is far above rubies or pearls." Proverbs 31:10, Amplified Bible

Artwork notes::
This image may be ordered as greeting cards (quantity discounts available), prints, and other products featured on this page. All artwork ordered through Fine Art America comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee, and world-wide shipping is available.
Embedded in the top right-hand corner is the Hebrew acronym for "B'ezras Hashem" [ ב ס " ד ] meaning "with God's help"". It is a reminder to me as an artist of my dependence on the Almighty, the Originator of all creativity. This is a similar acknowledgement used by great artists like Johann Sebastian Bach and George Frideric Handel who signed their work with the Latin phrase, "Soli Deo gloria" which means, "Glory to God alone".
The "Fine Art America" watermark in the full resolution preview will not show in the final print/product purchased.
