{"product_id":"col-add-cyc-sit-rei-w","title":"Cyclamen persicum (Florist's Cyclamen) – White Autumn and Winter Planter (Pre-Planted Sitting Reindeer)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis pre-planted Sitting Reindeer holds a white florist's cyclamen (Cyclamen persicum) in bloom, bringing crisp seasonal colour to a porch, doorstep or sheltered corner as soon as it arrives.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhite cyclamen are loved for their delicate, swept-back petals above deep green, silver-marbled, heart-shaped foliage. The clean white flowers suit traditional and contemporary settings alike, and the plant flowers over a long season through autumn and winter. It is a tender cyclamen, so treat it as seasonal colour rather than a plant for the open border.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe plants are growing together in the reindeer and arrive in it, ready to display with no extra planting. It makes a thoughtful seasonal gift. Place it in a bright, sheltered spot out of cold wind and away from heavy frost. A hard or prolonged frost will kill it. Indoors, choose a cool, bright windowsill away from radiators and draughts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWater around the edge of the container rather than into the crown, and allow the top of the compost to dry slightly between waterings. Twist and pull off spent flowers and yellowing leaves at the base to keep new blooms coming. As a natural product, plant size, shape and bloom count may vary slightly.\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 (variety dependent)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrowth Habit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Compact, mounding, with flower stems held above the foliage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePerfect For:\u003c\/strong\u003e Porches, sheltered patios, windowsills, seasonal gifting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFoliage:\u003c\/strong\u003e Deep green, heart-shaped leaves with silver marbling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlowering Time:\u003c\/strong\u003e Autumn to 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 or bright, indirect light, sheltered from cold wind\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardiness:\u003c\/strong\u003e Not hardy.
