I kept a potted gift gerbera daisy indoors over the winter. It survived in a cool, north facing window (but didn't flower).
I put it outside on the deck when warm weather came, and it thrived and flowered. It did dry up every other day and wilt though. I plan on overwintering it again this fall.
Only one was potted as it was gift from my mom for our wedding party table. I kept it through the winter inside in a south facing window. Again no bloom, but it did bloom on our porch the following spring. However, it didn't make it past that summer... we were too dry and I wasn't keeping up with it well enough.
