For indoor display or a sheltered container, use bright filtered light and keep the plant cool. Water when the mix begins to dry, avoiding the crown and allowing excess water to drain. The [North Carolina Extension guide](https://plants.ces.ncsu.edu/plants/cyclamen-persicum/) notes that summer dormancy is normal and watering should be reduced as leaves die back. ## Maintenance Remove faded flowers and yellowing leaves at their base to keep the display tidy; North Carolina Extension notes that removing spent flowers can encourage continued bloom. Reduce watering during the natural summer rest and resume as new growth returns.
