Originating from the Mediterranean, cyclamen thrives in environments that mimic its native subtropical climate, with moderate humidity. This species is adapted to a humidity cycle that aligns with the seasonal rainfall of its habitat, displaying a preference for consistent but not excessive watering. As such, it requires weekly watering to maintain its health.

Cyclamen thrives in partial sunlight, receiving a balanced exposure to bright but indirect light for a few hours daily. While it can tolerate direct sunlight, excessive light can stress the plant, potentially leading to leaf burn and reduced flowering.
Soil

The soil used for cyclamen cultivation should be loose and well-drained. The cultivation soil made of leaf and garden soil in a ratio of 2:1 and a little calcium superphosphate can be used. Perlite and peat mixed in a ratio of 2:1 can also be used. No matter what kind of cultivation soil is used, it must be disinfected before use, otherwise it is easy to be infected.
Other Information
Cyclamen require a cool environment and constant humidity, without flooding, to thrive. Special care includes avoiding high temperatures and ensuring adequate air circulation to prevent fungal diseases. Because of their sensitivity to overwatering and environmental demands, cyclamen pose a challenge even for experienced gardeners.
