Cyclamen Yellowing: Light and Watering Fixes

Probable Causes

• Inadequate light
• Soil staying too moist

Immediate Fixes

• Move to north windowsill (bright indirect).
• Let top inch of soil dry between thorough waterings.
• Don't let wilt completely.

Full Cyclamen Care

• No repotting—needs potbound to bloom.
• Cool temps: 45–70°F, ideal 55°F for flowers.
• If >70°F: goes dormant (yellow leaves). Reduce water/light until cool returns.
• Some experts say: stop water 4 months from June, keep cool/dry/dim.
