A new pale yellow gerbera (Gerbera hybrida Hort.) cultivar 'Honey Cream' was developed from a cross between 'Princessa' and 'Picasso', followed by seedling and line selections at the Flower Research Institute, Gyeongnam Agricultural Research and Extension Services (ARES) in 2006. Three times evaluations were conducted from 2003 for the detailed characteristics of the new cultivar. 'Honey Cream' has semi-double type large flowers in good harmony with pale yellow (RHS, 11-D) ray floret and green center. It has good, stable flower shape and strong peduncle, and its vase life was 12.3 days. The average flower yield of 'Honey Cream' was about 48.5 stems per plant/year in greenhouse trails during 2003 and 2006. This cultivar was registered to the Korea Seed and Variety Service (KSVS) for commercialization in 2007. Year-round production of this cultivar is possible in the greenhouse condition in Korean climate.
