Syngenta’s [2025 APAC Cyclamen catalog](https://www.syngentaflowers.com/apac/sites/g/files/kgtney2376/files/media/document/2025/05/15/apac_cyclamen_catalogue_2025_def2_flipbook.pdf) lists this cultivar and describes the Maxora Friller series as flowering from December through March. Kew accepts [Cyclamen persicum](https://powo.science.kew.org/taxon/700765-1), family Primulaceae. ## Maintenance Keep the potting mix moist during active growth, and water around the tuber rather than directly onto its crown. [Iowa State University Extension](https://yardandgarden.extension.iastate.edu/how-to/all-about-cyclamen) recommends room-temperature water; after bloom, gradually reduce watering as the foliage yellows and the plant goes dormant.
