Snowridge™ Maxi Purple Cyclamen

Snowridge™ Maxi Purple is a purple-flowered F1 Cyclamen persicum in Syngenta's large-specialty Snowridge Maxi series. The 2021 breeder brochure lists code 70036340 for Purple and describes large, strong-colored flowers, a round, well-structured habit, and an August–December production flowering window; see the [Snowridge Maxi profile](https://online.flippingbook.com/view/428733/1). ## Display Use this purple cyclamen as a prominent seasonal pot display. The large-specialty series is described for strong color and large flowers; its rounded outline works well as a single focal pot or grouped with smaller flowering plants. The catalog notes a 12–16 cm production pot size, which is a grower pot specification rather than mature garden height or spread. ## Growing Persian cyclamen grows from a tuber and prefers cool conditions, bright filtered light, and well-drained medium. Water when the medium feels dry, keeping water off the crown, and reduce watering during summer dormancy. The species is frost tender, so protect it from freezing. [North Carolina Extension's florist cyclamen guide](https://plants.ces.ncsu.edu/plants/cyclamen-persicum/) explains these care requirements. ## Maintenance Remove faded flower stems to support continued flowering. Reduce water while the tuber is dormant, then resume when new growth begins.
