Plant of the month November
Thompson's Plant of the Month for November is the Cyclamen.
This exceptionally long lasting, prolific flowering plant is a real winner during the winter months.
About the Cyclamen
The hardy Cyclamen are a beautiful sight in the garden, particularly during the winter months, with lovely shades of pink and white that will continue to flower from Autumn through till Spring. It's the long flowering period that make this plant an essential addition to your garden, especially when there's limited choice for colour in your garden through Winter.
Hardy Cyclamen are a versatile plant that can be used throughout your garden, most notably in pots on your patio. They're also great for winter hanging baskets, lining the edges of borders and paths, or planting around larger plants in your borders and flower beds.
Although hardy, you will need to protect them from extreme frosts as this will ruin the blooms. A simple layer of organic material around the base of the plant will suffice, or if planted in pots, bring the pots into a more sheltered site of your garden/patio.
