When a Gerbera Daisy individual flower stem dies, what do you do? Cut if off & from where?

These are pretty nice plants, outside in a pot. The plant seems healthy and there are other flowers, still alive. Do you cut it off at the bottom (entire stem) or do you deadhead it like a geranium? I don't want to kill the plant -- I want it to keep blooming over and over again.

As close as possible to its base. Any stalk left on can harbor disease.
Reply:if you cut the stem the roots will get more strength and new ones will come up .
