The display gives a full, finished look as soon as it is put out, and spent flowers can be pulled off with their stalks to keep new buds coming.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 3 plants arrive growing in the trough, ready to stand on a patio, step or porch. Choose a sheltered spot in partial shade, out of cold wind. Keep the compost on the dry side and water at the edge rather than into the crown of the plant.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese are one season of autumn and winter colour, not a hardy garden cyclamen.
