Cyclamen Coum Autumn Bulbs – JB1025

Cyclamen Coum bulbs with pink to magenta blooms and marbled foliage. Ideal for autumn planting in shaded gardens, borders, woodland areas, and containers.

Cyclamen Coum produces vivid pink to magenta blooms from January to March, paired with attractive silver-marbled foliage. Perfect for shady spots, this hardy perennial naturalises easily and brings early-spring colour to woodland gardens, borders, and containers.

Planting in autumn ensures a reliable flush of colour when little else is in bloom. Cyclamen Coum’s compact size, vibrant flowers, and long-lasting foliage make it ideal for naturalising under trees, along pathways, or in shaded borders, providing year-after-year beauty with minimal care.

  • Plant dormant Cyclamen Coum bulbs in autumn, typically from late September to November.
  • Plant bulbs at a depth of 4–6 cm, spacing them 10–15 cm apart.
  • Choose a partial to full shade location, such as woodland areas, shaded borders, or under trees.
  • Plant in well-drained, humus-rich soil; avoid waterlogging.
  • Water lightly after planting to help establish roots.
  • Once established, bulbs are low maintenance and naturalise over time.
  • Allow foliage to persist naturally through winter, feeding bulbs for spring bloom.
  • Fully hardy in UK gardens, no winter protection required.
