Cyclamen Coum Album
M5262
Description
With delicate, white flowers fluttering like a flurry of snowflakes, Cyclamen ‘Coum Alba’ is a superb early-season variety, blooming for weeks on end.
Lightly marbled, dark green foliage shows off the pearly blooms to perfection, and provides beautiful, ornamental groundcover. These little gems are a delightful complement to snowdrops and hellebores, ideal for underplanting trees and shrubs and filling container displays.
Hardy and easy-going, the RHS have bestowed this variety with their prestigious Award of Garden Merit. Cyclamen ‘Coum Alba’ provides a glimmer of floral joy during the darker months of the year.
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.
