These plants don't like cold weather, therefore in the Spring it is best to set them outside only when the temperatures are above 15°C. Let's position the plants where they can enjoy a good source of light,yet avoiding direct sunshine, which could cause antiaesthetic burnings on the foliage.The Florist's cyclamen should be grown in a bright place, with direct sunlight.

Generalities Florist's cyclamen
These plants have trunks or roots which store nourishment, originating bulbs or tubers. The Florist's cyclamen is small in size and 20 cm in height; in the winter it assumes a red colouring. These plants aren't evergreens, which means they lose their leaves some months during the year. These plants grow covering the whole land at their disposal.

Fertilization Florist's cyclamen
During this period of the year it's good to fertilize our plants every 15-20 days; let’s choose a specific fertilizer, for house plants, flowering or green ones, to add to the water used to irrigate. We should prefer fertilizers rich in nitrogen and potassium, to favour flowering and the development of new vegetation.

Watering Florist's cyclamenTenere asciutto
Water rarely, about once every 1-2 weeks with 2-3 glasses of water , keeping the soil dry for a few days before watering again; when wetting we suggest avoiding surpluses, however to wet the soil deep down. Let's remember to empty the plant saucers after watering, to avoid that stagnant water could damage the roots.

Treatments Florist's cyclamen
Generally during this time of year we suggest a pre-emptive treatment with wide range insecticide and with a systemic fungicide, to prevent the attack from part of the aphids and the development of fungus diseases, often favoured by a mild and damp climate.
