Hi folks How long do cyclamen normally last for?

    Depends on the cyclamen. Do you know what type you have?

    There are two that are hardy in the UK (depending of on where you are). That should return each year depending on whether they have the right conditions.

    Others should are kept as houseplants.

    The hardy ones go on for years in the ground and self seed and spread.   fabulous plants.

    The reason I asked was I've just put 4 in the garden and couldn't remember the life span

    If you found them at an indoor shop they're probably houseplants.

    Can you post a photo?

    Cyclamen hederifolium are out now in the garden.
