Name of Plant:                                   Cyclamen

 

Type of Plant/Description:                Blooming plant.  Beautiful flowers that sprout from the center corm.  The blossoms

turn back on themselves leaving a butterfly-like pose with the petals. 

 

Light Requirements:                          Moderately Bright light, near a sunny window, but not direct light.

 

Watering Needs:                                Moderately moist.  Water daily, under the foliage or from the bottom.  Do not let stand in

water.

 

Temperature requirements:               Around 65 degrees during the day and not below 50 degrees at night.

 

Additional Information:                    Deep green heart-shaped leaves with silvery veining make this a pretty foliage plant

when the blossoms have faded.  Normal blooming period is December to April, but I have seen their blooming period last much longer, and we can obtain blooming cyclamens year round.
