Cyclamen

(Cyclamen persicum)

A moderately bright light (diffused sunlight) is preferred. Water the plant thoroughly when the soil surface feels dry to the touch. Drain the excess water in the saucer at the base of the pot to prevent root rot and protect furniture.

Moderate temperatures are ideal: 65-70 F (18-21 C) daytimes. Avoid excessively hot or cold areas.

Fertilize your Cyclamen periodically, following manufacture’s directions.

Key tip for success: Bright light will allow buds to develop and open. Place in a cool environment at night 50-60 F/10-15 C) to help extend the flowering period.
