RE: Cyclamen for Indoor Colour

in #cyclamen6 years ago

Here at Gertens, we offer indoor care instructions for cyclamen plants, one of the best winter bloomers. Over the years, growers have come up with many new hybrids for us to enjoy. Some have ruffled flowers, and some varieties are miniature, but all maintain a large bright flower, usually in red, pinks, maroons and white. All Cyclamen display green or variegated heart shaped leaves.

Easy to use soil moisture and light meters can help you ensure your Cyclamen and other houseplants receive the proper water and light. Mini-floral snips are handy for trimming and shaping.
Cyclamen are a great indoor plant - easy 8 weeks plus of color.
One of the reasons our Cyclamen last as long as they do is that we build up the base of the plant first. Proper variety selection, culture and nutrition will allow the plant to grow a lot of leaves - and with Cyclamen, leaves = flowers. If you gently push apart the leaves on one of our Cyclamen you will see lots of buds coming up from the center. You can also move a Cyclamen outside in April - the plant will take a freeze, but you should be careful to acclimate the plant so the change isn't too great, both from a temperature and sunlight perspective.
