Cyclamen cyprium (Cyprus Cyclamen) Tubers
- In stock, ready to ship
Cyclamen cyprium bulbs generate an eye-catching plant. This cultivar is the national flower of Cyprus and often flourishes in elevated locales. It boasts highly mottled leaves with silvery-green hues and toothed edges, making for a striking background for its flowers. The blooms hang from the stems, and boast reflexed white-to-pink petals with magenta speckles near the base. We recommend planting this before the harsher weather conditions in late autumn early winter to allow for flowering the following year.
Cyclamen cyprium flourishes best in conditions similar to its native habitat, including moist shade and warmer, humid winters. Planting this species in protected environments like under tree or shrub canopies is highly recommended to safeguard it from harsh weather. As it is fairly delicate, it performs optimally in a pot.
Planting Time: August - April
Flowering Time: September - November
Max height: 8cm
The ideal time to plant spring flowering bulbs like tulips, daffodils, crocus, and snowdrops is from September to November. Planting during this period allows bulbs to establish roots before winter and ensures a healthy, vibrant bloom in early spring, with stunning green foliage and flower colours ranging from purple and blue to bright yellows and whites.
Most spring bulbs planted in autumn start to flower between February and May, depending on the type. Early bloomers like snowdrops and crocus appear first, while tulips and daffodils follow later in spring, creating a sequential display of colour.
Yes! Mixing different bulbs such as tulips, daffodils, and muscari adds something extra in terms of colour and texture to your garden. Planting in clusters or drifts creates a natural, layered effect, letting you get a longer flowering season and a richer display for both you and pollinators.
Yes, but allow leaves to die back naturally rather than cutting them too early. Leaving the foliage lets the plant save energy, which the bulbs use to produce strong, vibrant flowers come next spring.
