Winter-Blooming Cyclamen Makes Great Indoor Plants

The nodding flowers of cyclamen have swept-back petals held on straight
stems above the foliage. The cordate or heart-shaped leaves have varying
patterns of silver and gray, which is another highly attractive feature of
cyclamen.
.
Cyclamen like lots of bright, indirect light when grown indoors.
.
Be sure to keep yours away from heating vents. Cyclamen like high
humidity, so low humidity caused by the house's heating system can be a
problem during the winter. Work around this problem by keeping your
cyclamen container on a layer of pebbles in a tray filled with water.
Never place the container directly in the water as this would overwater
the plant.
.
If you like the plant so much you want to see if everywhere, try some
cyclamen in containers. Cyclamen like temperatures in the 40- to 60-degree
range, which means we can grow them outdoors for much of the Mississippi
winter. Colorful containers arranged by the front door can cheerfully
greet visitors. And since you grow them in containers, you can whisk them
indoors if a spell
.
of cold weather moves in.
.
Watering is the biggest problem most home gardeners have growing cyclamen
successfully. Avoid overwatering at all costs. Always wait for the potting
mix to feel dry to the touch, and then water thoroughly around the outside
of the container. Never pour water directly on the crown of your cyclamen,
as this can encourage crown rot. Place the container in the sink to allow
it to drain completely before you put it back out for decoration.
.
Although cyclamen look great through the winter, as the weather begins to
warm, the leaves eventually will start to turn to yellow. Many gardeners
take this as the signal to throw the plant away and buy a new one next
fall, but the adventurous gardener can try to keep it all year and get it
to bloom again next winter.
