Cyclamen Coum
M5261
Description
One of the first to flower from late winter into spring, Cyclamen ‘Coum’ seeds and spreads freely to provide carpets of much-needed colour early in the season.
Dainty blooms flit above the ground like butterfly wings in varying shades of pink. The dark green foliage is laced with silver veining, offering decorative groundcover for shady spots. These charming Cyclamen Coum are an asset to any garden, ideally suited to planting beneath trees and shrubs, naturalising in grass and planting in patio pots and window boxes.
The RHS has granted this variety a much-coveted Award of Garden Merit for its reliability and disease-resistance.
Care Guide
Plant your Cyclamen in a shaded location, in well-drained, rich soil.
Prefers shallow planting, 5 cm deep, spaced 15 cm apart in the soil. Provide moderate watering, keeping the soil consistently moist. Avoid waterlogging.
Delicate stems of dainty, upswept blooms rise to heights of 10-15 cm from a bed of heart-shaped attractive foliage. Flowering period depends on particular variety.
After planting, leave undisturbed to settle and naturalise. Blooms may not appear until the second season.

Tap Dance
M5323
With lofty, slender spikes of sunshine yellow, Eremurus ‘Tap Dance’ adds a joyous, zingy, tropical note to your beds and borders. Also called ‘desert candle’, the luminous flowers of this variety will illuminate your garden and provide a definite talking point.
Stretching towards the skies, the distinctive, bottle-brush blooms offer plentiful nectar, attracting pollinators from far and wide. Flourishing in the arid climates of Afghanistan and Turkey, Eremurus thrive on free-draining, sandy soil in a sunny position, returning triumphantly every year.
Eremurus ‘Tap Dance’ is a fantastic, long-lasting cut flower: even just a few stems placed in a tall vase makes an astonishing arrangement.
