Cyclamen repandum, the spring sowbread, is native to southern Europe and some Mediterranean islands. It is the most widespread of a group of cyclamens (genus Cyclamen subgenus Psilanthum) with wide, heart-shaped leaves, often coarsely toothed or lobed, and late spring-blooming flowers with long, slender petals.
Cyclamen repandum grows in rocky areas, shrubland, and woodland near the Mediterranean from southeastern France through Italy to Serbia and on Corsica, Sardinia, and Sicily. Leaves are dark green with a lighter arrowhead pattern, not speckled. Flowers are deep carmine-pink or white, without a darker nose. They lack the auricles present in Cyclamen hederifolium.
Cyclamen repandum is a deciduous plant that has a hardiness rating of 4, being hardy and can withstand temperatures down to -5 to -10 C. It requires partial shade and can grow in chalk, clay, sand or loam. It can grow in any pH level; acid, alkaline or neutral. C. repandum can grow to an ultimate height of 10cm.

Height: 20cm, 8"

Soak the seeds for 12-24 hours before planting. Sow just under the surface of the soil and water in. Place them in a cool and dark room or closet, as they require darkness to germinate. Temp (16-18C, 61-64F). Germination can begin in 6 weeks, and some seeds can take up to a year. Check regularly for germination and bring to light once signs of growth are visible.
Ornamental use only. These seeds and or plants are poisonous.
