Cyclamen coum Mix

The winter-blooming hardy cyclamen is a fantastic, easy-to-grow garden gem. Growing 4" tall, its round to heart-shaped foliage usually appears first in autumn. Its pink-to-carmine or white blooms open in winter, often before snowdrops. This exceptional variety, Coum, is the most cold-hardy cyclamen available. It produces many seeds, self sows and will colonize an area. This is an ideal mix for planting in borders, as a ground cover, in naturalized areas, woodland gardens and patio containers. For a showy display, plant with snowdrops. The Cyclamen coum mix is drought tolerant, deer resistant and attracts pollinators. It also grows well in patio containers. For the best performance, plant bulbs in well-drained soil with lots of organic matter and shade. Bulb size C. coum: 10-13 cm and C. coum 'Album' 8+ cm.
