ARRIVAL:
Open your gift and unwrap the container, then follow the instructions below carefully to grow and enjoy a healthy plant.
BLOOM TIME/REBLOOMING:
Cyclamen bloom in the fall, providing a colorful display lasting a couple of months. In the spring, the leaves will appear to be dying—the plant is going dormant. To force the plant to re-bloom in the fall, stop watering and store in a cool, dry area for 2 months. When new growth appears (Sept-ish) start watering.
PLACEMENT:
Display in bright indirect light with indoor temperatures on the cool side, low 60s, if possible. In direct sunlight and warmer temperatures, the plant will go into early dormancy.
WATER/FEEDING:
While in bloom, keep the soil moist, not soggy. The best way to water is by placing the pot in a water-filled tray and allowing the roots to absorb the moisture, rather than watering from above the plant.
Apply a complete liquid fertilizer every 8 weeks throughout the growing period.
Jackson & Perkins offers a selection of fertilizer & plant care products. We suggest using AlgoPlus fertilizer for the general health and maintenance of your plant.
IMPORTANT: Ornamental plant material should not be eaten. Keep away from pets and children.
