{"product_id":"col-add-chr-tro-w","title":"Cyclamen persicum – Ready Planted White Winter Display (3 Plants in a Christmas Trough)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis ready planted Christmas trough holds 3 white cyclamen, the classic florist's cyclamen (Cyclamen persicum), for crisp, clean colour on a doorstep, patio or porch through autumn and winter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhite cyclamen have delicate, swept-back flowers that stand out against their dark, silver-marbled, heart-shaped leaves. They suit a winter planting scheme as a centrepiece on a doorstep or as part of a larger seasonal arrangement, and they keep flowering through the cooler months.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 3 plants are growing together in the trough and are ready to display as soon as it is in place, with no extra planting needed. Stand it in a sheltered spot in partial shade, out of cold wind. It is one season of autumn and winter colour rather than a permanent planting, because a hard or prolonged frost will kill it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKeep the compost moist but not waterlogged, and water at the edge of the trough rather than over the crowns. Cyclamen prefer to stay slightly on the dry side. Remove spent flowers with their stalks, and pick off yellowing leaves, to encourage more blooms. In a very cold spell, move the trough to a sheltered porch. Keep the tubers away from people and pets, as they should not be eaten.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCultural Information\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCommon Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e White Cyclamen, Florist's Cyclamen\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBotanical Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cyclamen persicum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFully Grown Height and Spread:\u003c\/strong\u003e Approx. 15-20cm tall and 15-20cm wide (variety dependent)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrowth Habit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Compact, low-growing, clump-forming\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePerfect For:\u003c\/strong\u003e Doorsteps, patios, porches, window boxes and winter containers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFoliage:\u003c\/strong\u003e Silver-marbled, heart-shaped dark green leaves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlowering Time:\u003c\/strong\u003e Autumn to early spring (October to March, variety dependent)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlower Colour:\u003c\/strong\u003e White\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlanting Position:\u003c\/strong\u003e Partial shade, sheltered from cold wind\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardiness:\u003c\/strong\u003e Not hardy.
