Can I cut or trim the ENORMOUS leaves (a little bit) on my GERBERA DAISIES?

Question

I feel that the leaves on my gerbera daisies are kind of....lets say taking over.

They are kind of making it so bottom leaves and new little flower buds that are still short cant get enough sun....

I have them in a 2 ft long rectangular flower box....

Answer 1

do not touch those leaves ,the beauty of this plant is not only the flowers but also the leaves,and the flowers will be just fine its just that the new ones start from very close to the bottom leaves,and dont worry they are getting the sun that they need...
