Cyclamen hederifolium is a hardy, compact perennial bearing delicate pink flowers approximately 2.5cm wide, darker around the mouth, on leafless stalks from August through September.
Foliage emerges after flowering, displaying distinctive ivy-shaped leaves with striking silvery-green patterning that persists through winter before the plant goes dormant in late spring.
Plant in humus-rich, well-drained soil in partial shade or dappled woodland conditions. Mulch annually with leaf mould in autumn. Thrives under deciduous trees and shrubs, tolerating dry shade once established.
Plant Guide
Hardy to H5, tolerating -18°C or lower with snow cover. Plant tubers 5cm deep in autumn in well-draining soil with good organic matter. Prefers cool, shaded spots with dappled light. Water moderately while in growth (autumn–spring); keep dry in summer dormancy to prevent tuber rot. Mulch after foliage dies down. Requires minimal maintenance once established; allow self-seeding to create natural colonies. Watch for vine weevil and slugs. Cyclamen is toxic to pets and children if ingested.

Delivery Discrepancies
Please check your order as soon as it arrives. If there is any discrepancy — such as a missing, incorrect, or damaged item — please contact us within 48 hours of delivery so we can put things right.
