But if you want to keep it going from year to year its worth planting it into a loambased compost with added horticultural grit. Make sure the new pot has drainage holes and ensure the top of the corm sits just above the soil surface. Take care not to disturb the roots too much.
Water once the soil begins to feel dry. Rather than watering with a watering can which can splash water on the leaves causing mildew stand the plant in a saucer or shallow bowl of water for an hour or so until the compost is moist but not soaking wet. Let any excess water drain away.
Cyclamen dont need much feeding otherwise they will produce lots of foliage rather than flowers. Feed every couple of months with a house plant fertiliser if youre planning on keeping your plant from year to year if not you dont need to bother.

Bring the plant indoors repotting it if necessary and start watering again when you see fresh growth.

Growing indoor cyclamen problem solving
Most problems with indoor cyclamen are caused by over watering or high temperatures.
Yellow leaves in autumn or winter mean the room is too warm or the plant has been under or overwatered. It may also have received too much sunlight. Keep your plant in a cool room out of bright sunshine and water when the soil begins to dry out. Yellow leaves in spring are normal however the plant is dying back naturally before going dormant.
Poor flowering is due to the room being too warm this will send the cyclamen into early dormancy. In spring it will stop flowering naturally however.
