Gardening Unplugged - Hardy Cyclamen with Kevin Stephens

Hello gardeners! In this video our Lead Grower Kevin Stephens answers questions about growing cyclamen in the Southeast US zone 7b/8a. Most people are familiar with Cyclamen persicum, the florist cyclamen that is sold in big stores around springtime and is generally not ground hardy in our region. But there are many species of cyclamen including Cyclamen hederifolium, C. coum, C. purpureum, C. cilicium, and C. kuznetzovii that are quite winter hardy and easy to grow in the garden if you follow a couple of rules.
