Cyclamen Coum
M5261
Description
One of the first to flower from late winter into spring, Cyclamen ‘Coum’ seeds and spreads freely to provide carpets of much-needed colour early in the season. Dainty blooms flit above the ground like butterfly wings in varying shades of pink. The dark green foliage is laced with silver veining, offering decorative groundcover for shady spots. These charming Cyclamen are an asset to any garden, ideally suited to planting beneath trees and shrubs, naturalising in grass and planting in patio pots and window boxes. The RHS has granted this variety a much-coveted Award of Garden Merit for its reliability and disease-resistance.
Care Guide
Plant your Cyclamen in a shaded location, in well-drained, rich soil.
Prefers shallow planting, 5cm deep, spaced 15cm apart in the soil. Provide moderate watering, keeping the soil consistently moist. Avoid waterlogging.
Delicate stems of dainty, upswept blooms rise to heights of 10-15cm from a bed of heart-shaped attractive foliage. Flowering period depends on particular variety.
After planting, leave undisturbed to settle and naturalise. Blooms may not appear until the second season.
