cyclamen leaves
« on: December 18, 2012, 08:41:12 PM »
Hi garden experts...

I have an indoor cyclamen that I brought home from my Dad's house when he died five years ago.  As you can imagine it is really important for me to look after this. It flowers all the time but at the moment it has loads of flowers on it but absolutely no leaves.  Any ideas?

Maybe try re potting it in fresh soil, but leave the top half of the bulb above the soil. I also feed mine with a liquid food - miracle grow pour and feed is the one I use.

All I know about cyclamen is that I was advised to water them from the bottom
