Cyclamen Question?

Question

I have noticed tiny new plants coming up in my cyclamen pots & wonder if they will grow as successfully as the mother plants? Has anyone some tips for what to do with them?

Answer 1

You may have noticed the "balls" that appear at the end of the flower stalks when the flower is finished. If you place these "seeds" onto moist soil they will germinate into new plants. Separate them into new pots when they grow a little bit bigger/stronger. Important thing with cyclamens is to keep the corm (ball) above ground level or otherwise it may rot.
