Product Description
Carefully furled buds unwrap into rare pure white flowers with shell-shaped petals, that sit upon slender stems. Cyclamen Hederifolium Alba is a welcome guest to the garden at the end of summer, whenmost other flowers are looking more than sorry for themselves. The Cyclamen Hederifolium Alba has a long flowering period before disappearing over the summer - but not without leaving behind a pretty carpet of heart-shaped marbled leaves. Originating from the Mediterranean, it comes as a surprise that these plants are equally happy to grow in shade as they are in sun. Leave undisturbed and they will multiply. 10cm+bulbs are supplied.
