In June or so, when it entered the state of hibernation, it stopped water and fertilizer, and placed in a cool and ventilated place, with the temperature kept at 15-20 ℃. When the plant recovers in September, ensure sufficient water and apply compound fertilizer.

After flowering in May and before dormancy in summer, cyclamen should be pruned. When pruning, first remove the flower branches from the roots, then cut off the withered, yellow and rotten leaves. At this time, water and apply fertilizer normally to prepare for the next flowering.

From June to July, with the increase of temperature, the plant gradually entered the state of hibernation. At this time, place the flowerpots together in a cool and ventilated place indoors, keep the temperature around 15-20 ℃ and keep the bulbs hard. There is no need to apply fertilizer in dormancy period, waiting for the next growth period. During this period, stop water and fertilizer, let the plants naturally spend the summer dormancy period.
