Soil:Â Cyclamen prefers to grow in organically rich, well-draining soil with a slightly acidic soil pH.Â
Water:Â water whenever the soil feels dry about an inch below its surface. Avoid getting water on the leaves or crown of the plantÂ
Fertilizer:Â Feed your cyclamen plant with a diluted liquid low-nitrogen fertilizer every couple of weeks while in full leaf.Â
Temperature:Â preferring temperatures between 40 and 50 degrees Fahrenheit at night and between 60 and 70 degrees Fahrenheit during the day
