Known as plants of love, cyclamens can turn even grey winter days into a \u201cburst of colour\u201d. On a windowsill in colourful pots, in planter boxes on the terrace, in a garden bed, or in a pot in the living room or kitchen, they\u2019re ideal for brightening up any space in autumn and winter, as in our climate the flowers appear at the end of autumn and last until early spring. They also have the advantage of requiring little maintenance. Use your creativity and mix different colors of this plant, which is considered a plant of “lasting feelings and sincere affection.” Note that after flowering, the cyclamen goes dormant and, although it may look like it has died, it\u2019s still alive.<\/p>\n
