For pretty mass planting in woodland or shady borders, Cyclamen ‘Hederifolium Album’ is a sublime choice. Dainty winged flowers of pure white bloom during autumn, followed by attractive, ivy-like silvered foliage which provides interest during the winter months.
Plant the corms in small groups just below the soil surface in spring and flowers will start to emerge from October. Prefers dappled shade and well-drained, rich soil where these delightful perennials will seed and spread freely.
Cyclamen ‘Hederifolium Album’ has been granted a prestigious Award of Garden Merit for its prize-winning qualities and excellent, perennial performance.
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.
