With its butterfly-shaped blooms and winter colour, growing cyclamen is always a good idea. But knowing why your cyclamen is dropping is key if your plant is looking a little worse for wear, and you want to give it a new lease of life.
Although it can be grown outside, cyclamen is also considered one of the best Christmas houseplants for the festive season. Offering winter flowers that are almost guaranteed to bloom on Christmas day, cyclamen can serve as the centrepiece for your Christmas tablescape or add some colour to your windowsills to counteract the winter gloom.
But while cyclamen is relatively easy to care for, it does need some TLC to truly thrive indoors. It needs the right amount of light, water, and fertiliser, and it’s a good idea to understand its growing cycle to understand why your cyclamen may be drooping. Then, you can focus on fixing these problems before it’s too late.
