With the arrival of autumn and the drop in temperatures, winter plants regain importance in homes and on terraces. Among the options that add color through flowers and find their ally in the cold is the cyclamen, now available at the Lidl supermarket at an affordable price. [1]
The cyclamen is a plant native to the eastern Mediterranean, adapted to grow in forested areas and developing vigorous flowering precisely due to low temperatures. [1]
Once properly cared for, this species can keep its flowers fresh for four months. It is versatile, finding its place both on terraces and indoors, provided its light and humidity needs are met. [1]
The main rule for maintaining cyclamen during the cold season is avoiding excessive heat. If the temperature exceeds 16 degrees Celsius, the plant may enter a premature dormant state. [1]
The ideal location is bright but shielded from direct sunlight and artificial heat sources. Watering is done by immersion, leaving the pot to absorb water for 15 minutes, taking care that the tuber does not remain in stagnant water. It is recommended to water only when the top layer of soil begins to dry out. [1]
To extend the floral display, it is necessary to remove dried flowers and apply specialized fertilizer at the time of bud formation. [1]
With these simple tips, the cyclamen retains its visual charm throughout the coldest months of the year. [1]
