Consider the Cyclamen for Your Holiday Plantings
The holidays are right around the corner and we get a lot of requests for winter color changes for entryways and beds that speak to the season. Poinsettias are one logical choice, but a beautiful alternative is the Cyclamen. A mix of the red and white varieties are perfect for this purpose.
Cyclamen, a tuberous perennial, with orchid-like flowers, is a genus of the Primulaceae or primrose family. They have large heart-shaped leaves and are available in many colors and bi-color combinations.
Cyclamen are surprisingly hardy as outdoor winter plants.
