Almost all have colorful bracts that hold (generally) non-showy flowers. Homeowner care is the same for most varieties. Water the soil when dry (the pot will feel light). The better indoor light you have, the longer they’ll last (sometimes up to 6+ months!). Super intense heat and light will burn the plant, shortening its life. This is a tropical plant that grows in trees, so think bright shade and good moisture. Some literature says to water the cups of the leaves. True in nature but this greenhouse grown plant will often rot if you do so.

Yes! The same spring flowers you see in you neighboring yards, when it warms up. We bring these in, often while they are not showing color.

In their native lands Cyclamen thrive in cool temperatures that drop as low as 40 degrees F. at night and rise into the 60s during the day. Place them close to a bright south-, east-, or west-facing window for maximum sunlight. Careful when watering not to get the tuber at the soil line wet. It's best to let the soil get somewhat dry between waterings, but not to the point of wilting. When the pot feels light or the soil feels dry just below the surface, water it thoroughly and let it drain. Cyclamen go into a rest phase for the summer after flowering.

This plant comes in a wide range of colors and flower shapes. Keep them moist, not wet, and in as much sun as possible. They do prefer cool temps and will last longer if kept from the heat.

This plant is also called Non-stop Begonia as their flowers can last almost indefinitely. They’ll do best in bright light while keeping their soil most, but not wet.

Nothing says spring like the brightly colored hothouse Hydrangea. They are generally large plants in the little 6” pots and often need water twice a week to stay hydrated.

This tropical beauty could become your favorite. Treat it well with an east or west window and it could last for years in flower. Generally they do drop their flowers and enjoy some green growth and recovery, but the right location will make it happy. Water when the soil is just getting dry and ensure there is no standing water lingering more than a couple hours.

Another tropical plant with colorful bracts and indiscreet flowers. This guy does like the tropics. Think Mexico – heat and sun. They also like their water, especially if near a vent or warm window. On the flip side, keeping them soggy will end with a rotten plant. The bracts will actually hold the longest when in a cool, bright location. It is possible to save them from year to year, but to make them look good and flower at the right time will take some dedication.
