Snowridge™ Midi Purple Cyclamen

Snowridge™ Midi Purple (70049617) is an F1 Cyclamen persicum selection with purple bicolor flowers and a compact, mounding form. The Midi type grows about 10–12 inches tall and wide, fitting a smaller decorative pot or a close-up seasonal display. Syngenta describes this intermediate selection’s purple bicolor flowers and recommends 12–14 cm containers in its [Snowridge catalog](https://online.flippingbook.com/view/954217179/) and [product details for 70049617](https://www.syngentaflowers.com/emea/product/flower/70049617). ## Growing Conditions Give the plant bright, indirect light or part shade and use a rich, well-drained growing mix. Water when the mix feels dry, pouring at the pot edge rather than onto the crown. This frost-tender tuberous perennial grows best in cool conditions; keep it away from hot air vents and strong midday sun. [North Carolina State Extension](https://plants.ces.ncsu.edu/plants/cyclamen-persicum/) notes its winter-to-spring flowering and summer dormancy, which helps explain why foliage may decline after the cool season. ## Maintenance Remove spent flowers at the base to keep new blooms coming. As leaves yellow during summer dormancy, reduce watering and let the tuber rest in its pot without standing water. Resume regular moisture when fresh leaves emerge in fall.
