Cultural information: Cyclamens are usually found in 4" and 6" containers in shades of pink, purple, red, white, and bi-colors flowers. Some hybrid varieties of Cyclamen plants have attractively colored foliage. 

In the house, keep your Cyclamen plant in a cool location. Preferably a northern facing window. The soil should be moist but not soggy. Allow a little water to remain in the pebble tray being careful not to allow the plant to sit in water.


Discard your Cyclamen when it becomes unattractive and pick up a new indoor flowering house plant.
