@Gene indeed, it seems you have twins. 
Plants look very healthy and there is already some yellow color visible in the buds, very exciting!

It is beautiful! Do you know how many days it is after clicking it in?
Is tea made of Calendula flowers also common in Singapore?

It was clicked on 4th Dec. So around day 50 it flowered ? No its uncommon to use fresh calendula for tea in Singapore. Usually we use the edible dried chrysanthemums flowers brought from store.

The buds are starting to open. I can see the yellow petals and the middle of the flower in two of the 3 pods. The third pod is just starting to develop a bud bug it’s visible from certain angles

Our Calendula also started flowering around 50 days after planting.
It seems that chrysanthemum flowers and calendula flowers have very similar healing properties.
Click and Grow also offers Shungiku aka edible chrysanthemum, but as an edible green. But of course, if it is kept in a garden for longer it will flower.

That is so nice @Connie_Stephanie_Che
You have made it to the point when it needs deadheading. Cut off the flower with a piece of stem, above the previous leaf. It will use its energy to make new flowers rather than growing seeds.

Looking good so far. I placed my plants by the window and it’s actually currently snowing and below freezing so I think the calendula don’t dislike the cold too much.

HI @Max, nice bright yellow flowers!
Snowing would only make sense if there is a cold breeze or really cold on the window sill.
Would you remove the lower leaves that are losing color? Also, try out calendula flowers to brew some tea, if you’re a tea lover. If not, just enjoy the visual brightness of the petals

I can never pick which picture I want to upload so I just upload them all. So stunning I’m super excited how these are turning out. I looks like the plant that didn’t bloom will bloom soon. Can’t wait

@Max , thanks for the pics! Would you just use this plant as an ornamental or also make a soothing tea out of the petals?
