Cyclamen (50 Pieces FOB)

Tanım

In the right conditions, the plants will bloom continuously for a couple of months. Like many other plants in their native eastern Mediterranean climate, cyclamen naturally bloom in the fall, winter, and spring when the weather turns cool and damp. The tubers are actually just “resting,” and need only enough water to keep from completely drying out until new leaves emerge in the fall. They tolerate sun or partial shade, but need protection from hot sun in the afternoons. Florist’s cyclamen is tender and can typically only be grown indoors as a houseplant. Hardy cyclamen can be grown outdoors in cooler areas. In a small vase, cyclamen can last up to 5 or 6 days. Indoor pots flower for a couple of months. Outdoors. They can be used in hanging baskets and containers or planted into the ground. They don’t like heavy rain and strong winds so would appreciate a sheltered site in dappled shade with dry soil. They are fairly hardy and can tolerate frost down to about -3 to -4C (24 – 26F). In general, hardy cyclamen prefer poor, well-drained soils in full or part shade. Hardy cyclamen are easy to grow as long as you avoid heavy soils that are apt to get waterlogged. If you do have very wet soil it is probably best to grow cyclamen in pots or raised beds.
