How do I look after Cyclamen plants? Mine always die while other house plants thrive.?

Cyclamens are like a cacti type of plant like me at first you probably killed it with kindness like over watering


They do not need to much watering at all


When they die down just pop them outside till they start to grow again, and leave it you may think its dead I assure you its not

Be sure to follow a regular watering schedule. It likes temperatures between 65 degrees and fifty degrees during the day. They really like cooler type temperatures. Always water directly on the soil avoid watering over leaves and stems.





Fertilize about once or twice per month.
Reply:Cyclamen have a "dead" period,then start to grow again. Don't throw them away too soon. Water from below so the top of the corm doesn't get wet and start to rot. Good light but not direct sun.
Reply:you are supposd to use tepid distilled water and only water them from the bottom my old mum always told me


hers were always lovely
Reply:As with first answer. We keep ours on the window sill and cut down on the watering when all flowers have dropped. If they are flowering now use a little plant food.


If the room is too hot they will not last.
