{"product_id":"col-add-cyc-met-rei-pla-w","title":"Cyclamen persicum (Florist's Cyclamen) – White Winter Bedding Display (Pre-Planted Metal Reindeer Planter)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis White Cyclamen in a Metal Reindeer Planter is a festive, ready-to-display gift or seasonal decoration for a porch, doorstep or sheltered patio. Pure white Cyclamen persicum blooms sit in a characterful metal reindeer planter, and the plants are growing together in it and arrive in it, so there is nothing to plant.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFlorist's cyclamen are loved for their elegant, upswept petals and dark, silver-marbled, heart-shaped foliage. The crisp white flowers give a classic wintry look that suits traditional and contemporary seasonal displays, and they keep coming from autumn through to early spring.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePlace it in a bright, sheltered spot in partial shade, out of cold wind. It will take a light frost in a sheltered position, but a hard or prolonged frost will kill it, so treat it as one season of autumn and winter colour. Water at the edge of the planter rather than into the crown, and keep it on the dry side rather than sitting in soggy compost. Pull off spent flowers and yellowing leaves with a sharp twist at the base, and feed every two weeks with a liquid fertiliser while it is flowering. The tubers should not be eaten. As these are living plants, expect minor natural variation in bloom number and leaf patterning.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCultural Information\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCommon Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Florist's Cyclamen, Persian 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. 20-30cm tall and 20-30cm wide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrowth Habit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Compact and mound-forming\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePerfect For:\u003c\/strong\u003e Porches, sheltered patios, doorsteps and festive gifting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFoliage:\u003c\/strong\u003e Heart-shaped, dark green leaves with silver marbling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlowering Time:\u003c\/strong\u003e Autumn through to early spring\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.
