Cyclamen Cyclamen Cyclamen are colorful, easy to grow houseplants that can add beauty to our winter homes. Keep the soil evenly moist and fertilize every two weeks with a balanced plant food. They make an excellent winter blooming plant for the kitchen or living room table.
Cyclamen are available in a wide range of bloom colors and flower for an extended period of time.
Multiple flower stalks will shoot up from the center of the plant, bloom and then as they fade, new flower stalks will replace them, so it is constantly in bloom. Many people automatically discard Cyclamen after blooming is done, but they can be kept if given special care. When blooming ceases in the spring and the foliage dies down, keep the tubers in the pot in a cool dry spot and let the soil dry out. As the plant grows, gradually return it to a cooler climate to encourage blooming in the late fall.
