Cheers™ Yellow Calendula

CHEERS™ Yellow is a large-flowered pot marigold with dark green foliage and a compact, semi-upright outline. Danziger lists the CHEERS series for spring and summer flowering and describes its varieties as heat and cold tolerant, with improved powdery-mildew tolerance. Its manageable form suits seasonal beds, patio containers, and mixed plantings. ## Garden use and flowering Use it for an early-season display where it can receive sun, or combine it with cool-weather annuals. The breeder lists landscape and pot uses. Published dimensions vary by listing, so allow roughly 10–16 inches in both height and spread. ## Growing conditions Calendula grows in full sun or partial shade and prefers light, free-draining soil. Water during dry spells, especially in pots, while allowing excess water to drain. The species can flower over a long season when faded heads are removed.
