Wild cyclamen Cyclamen hederifolium
Excellent for naturalising among trees and in rockeries, this hardy species has dark green ivy-like leaves which sprout in the autumn and through the winter, and pink flowers which appear in August and September.
Plant your cyclamen tubers around 5 - 7cm below the surface of the soil, with the flatter part facing up and the rounded part facing down. They are best planted where they can be left undisturbed.
Our wildflower bulbs and corms are grown in the UK from British plants.
*Please note: Wild cyclamen at this time of year are not 'in the green'. These are dry tubers, likely not to have a shoot on.
