Cyclamen “Dragon Blue” is a captivating cultivar of Cyclamen persicum that brings an unusual lilac-blue tone to the cooler months — a colour seldom seen in cyclamens. According to RHS listings it is marketed as Cyclamen persicum ‘Dragon Blue’ / ‘Dragon Deep Blue’. Its eye-catching blooms rise above a mound of marbled green foliage, creating elegant contrast in patio pots, window boxes or sheltered garden borders. Because of its compact habit, it works particularly well in containers or edged beds. It also transitions nicely indoors in a bright, cool room away from direct heat.
Plant it alongside silver-leafed plants (e.g. artemisia, euphorbia) or winter foliage companions (e.g. hellebores, evergreen ferns) for pleasing textural contrast. In milder UK regions or in sheltered locations, it can be used outdoors over the colder months; in colder areas it is often treated as a seasonal display, bringing winter interest where few other plants flower.
Plant Care
Place in a bright location with indirect light; avoid strong direct sun on foliage. Maintain cool conditions (ideally 10–18 °C) and protect from frost. Use well-draining soil and water moderately: keep the soil moist but do not let the crown sit in water, as that may cause rot. Water at the pot edge rather than over the centre. Apply a balanced, dilute liquid fertiliser monthly during the active growing period. Deadhead spent blooms by gently twisting and pulling outwards from the base. After flowering, foliage may die back — allow a rest period. If grown overwinter outdoors, protect with horticultural fleece or move to a frost-free environment.
