Description
Cyclamen cilicium is a lesser-known but highly refined species, prized for its elegant, pale to deep pink flowers with a sweet scent. Flowering in autumn, it produces a graceful display before the emergence of attractively mottled leaves.
This species thrives in well-drained soils with dappled light—perfect for the edge of woodlands, under deciduous trees, or tucked into rockeries and raised beds. Its natural tolerance of dry conditions and compact habit make it a valuable addition to designed wild gardens, alpine collections, or low-input planting schemes. Blends well with Galanthus, Crocus, and low ferns.
Naturalises gently, offering seasonal interest without invasiveness
