Cyclamen hederifolium Rose, 1L
£6.50
notes
Fantastic for naturalising under shrubs or in woodland garden areas, this cyclamen produces masses of pink flowers with reflexed petals, in early autumn before its leaves appear. These are overlapping, and, as its name hederifolium suggests, the foliage resembles ivy, boasting an attractive marbled effect on the heart shaped leaves.
Dimensions
- Pot size: 1L
- Height & Spread: 10cm (4in) x 15cm (6in)
