Cyclamen White – Winter Bedding for Pots and Baskets (Set of 3 or 6)

Cyclamen White is a winter bedding cyclamen, grown for vivid white flowers over decorative marbled foliage over silver marbled, heart shaped leaves.

The flowers keep coming through the coldest, dullest weeks of the year, when very little else in the garden is doing anything. The marbled foliage earns its keep on its own once flowering slows, and the plant stays low, neat and compact.

The neat habit suits pots by a door, a doorstep display or a cool bright room indoors, as well as beds and borders outside. Plant it in partial or full shade, in pots, window boxes, hanging baskets or the front of a shaded border, where it is also happy underplanted beneath trees and shrubs. Supplied as three or six established plants in 10.5cm pots, grown in peat free compost in Yorkshire. Cyclamen tubers are harmful if eaten.
