Notes
'Silver Leaf Dark Pink' Persian violet (Cyclamen coum 'Silver Leaf Dark Pink') is a perennial for woodland gardens, shade gardens, and naturalizing. It is hardy to USDA zone 6, or down to -10°F (-23°C). This plant likes part sun to full shade and average moisture. Magenta and dark pink flowers glimmer over silver, heart-shaped to kidney-shaped leaves in February and March, often alongside Helleborus. It goes dormant in summer, so plant it en masse for a woodland effect.
Pairs well with Lady fern, Wood sorrel, and Spice bush.
