Products › Autumn planted bulbs to flower in the Spring › Cyclamen › Cyclamen hederifolium

Perhaps the toughest and most enduring. Beautiful ivy-shaped, glossy-marked leaves which are visible all winter after flowering, mostly pink but some white flowered.These may need a further year to flower really well in August to November, 4" (10cm) tall.

Planting instructions

Cyclamen tubers thrive best in lighter soils rich in leafmould; if drainage is a problem, lashings of grir may help. Acid to limey pH makes little difference and they should all be planted 1" (2.5cm) deep and about 5" (12cm) apart or dotted about. Do think too about the varied tapestry achievable from their leaves. Perfect companions to aconites, snowdrops and crocus.
