Heather in North Warwick. Yes, it's an indoor plant, round leaves with long leggy pink flowers that look as though they've been turned inside out. It's slowly dying, I think I overwatered it. Do you know if it can be saved?

I look forward to seeing your photos Veronica. Helen. I don't know very much about cyclamen, the one I had lasted several years and it was on a south facing window sill. My mother has a couple and they are also in a south facing position but reading tips about them in a magazine today, it is recommended that they aren't placed in full sun! It seems that they do better in a cooler environment, don't think they like draughts, also they rot if watered on the top of the corm. They do have a dormant time though when they stop growing for a while and you need to water less often until they start shooting again. Not sure if this helps. By the way, mine succumbed to an infestation of tiny white thread-like bugs. Heather
