    This is my droopy plant, is it a cyclamen. I've had it since October. it stood up straight before. Can't work out whether they are all new buds or if it's dying

    After they havd flowered, cut each individual dead head off. Otherwise it curls up and makes the seed pod. That can weaken the bulb.

  • Do I cut it to the bottom of each stem, will it grow back again? Thanks

    After it finishes flowering, keep it in a sunny position, it will die back to a corm. Next autumn, start watering again and feed it, it should flower again.

    Natalie, I must say what you have done so far looks amazing.  Well done you!

  • Thank you that's really kind. 

    My garden is North East facing so any tips would be fab or any ideas for the empty shed image
