Bengal™ Yellow with Eye Gerbera

Bengal™ Yellow with Eye is an upright, seed-grown Gerbera jamesonii with saturated yellow flowers and a contrasting central eye. Syngenta describes Bengal as a vigorous but controlled series that flowers uniformly and produces large blooms on short, sturdy stems. ## Garden Use The compact proportions suit containers and patio displays, bringing a strong yellow accent to a sunny seasonal arrangement. The [Syngenta product listing](https://www.syngentaflowers.com/ams/product/flower/70040767) gives a garden height of 10–12 inches and width of 7–9 inches and identifies the product as a potted annual. ## Growing Conditions Site in full sun or partial shade. Use a moist, well-drained medium rich in organic matter; in hot summer climates, protect plants from the harshest afternoon sun. Keep the soil evenly moist while roots establish, while avoiding waterlogged crowns. The [North Carolina Extension profile](https://plants.ces.ncsu.edu/plants/gerbera-jamesonii/) and [Clemson Extension care guide](https://hgic.clemson.edu/factsheet/gerbera-daisy/) offer species-level advice on light, drainage, and moisture. ## Maintenance Remove spent flower stems as they fade. Water at the soil line and allow the crown to dry between waterings to reduce the chance of crown and root rot.
