Floppy cyclamen
Last year at Christmas I was given a large-flowered cyclamen. It is
flowering profusely again this year, but on very long stems that trail rather than rise. The leaf stems are long too. What should I have done with it? Joyce of Pendle. -- "The spear in the Other's heart is in your own: you are he." -- Surak |

The leaf stems are long too. What should I have done with it? Not enough light. Can't do much this winter but place it outside in a light place, but not full sun, for the summer/autumn and keep it outside as long as possible even bringing it up to the house wall to protect from frost. Then when it's fully in flower bring it inside on a cool windowsill so you can enjoy it and repeat the process the next year. Don't let it get frosted though. I've got one flowering under our large camellia (tree like) right now, stays there permanently, but it is well protected from recent frosts by the camellia a water tank and a greenhouse wall. -- Regards Bob In Runnymede, 17 miles West of London |
