The Ivy-leaved cyclamen is a hardy and vigorous cyclamen. Native to Mediterranean regions it has naturalised further north and into the Pacific Northwest. The tuber can live a long time and get very large, blooming and leafing up in Autumn and through winter here becoming dormant in summer when the seed ripens. The flower stalks roll around the ripening pod. Ants carry the seeds off to eat the sticky coating. Colours white or pink. At this stage they are have not flowered but will in autumn. Largest plants sold form the trays. Sun in autumn, winter and spring. Since they die down in summer they can cope with being inundated by other bulbs from spring onwards.
