The ivy-leaved cyclamen or autumn cyclamen, scientifically called Cyclamen Persicum, is a perennial plant, native to Persia, appreciated and present in many homes and gardens for its ability to adapt and to give constant autumn and winter blooms.

Exposure: loves positions in the shade or partial shade, sheltered from the wind and warm.

The pots can also be placed in other areas: on the ground, on railings or on raised floors. The important thing is the exposure, otherwise no problem.
