Would be grateful for some advice please.

We bought some pots of Cyclamen from B&Q in August (garden variety) they
have bloomed non stop and there are still some buds to come out. I have
no idea whether they should be left outdoors and am concerned about the
uk winter.

We do not have a greenhouse, so I wondered if they would be better
wintering in our conservatory. it is not heated but at least they would
be out of the frost and snow.

Thank you

They are fairly hardy, but won't stand severe frosts - if the corm
freezes it will go mushy when it thaws. Overwintering in an unheated
conservatory would probably be fine as they don't like too much warmth,
either. As long as the conservatory is more or less frost free they
will be fine.
