A hot, sunny Sunday, and I just made the season’s first jug of salted lemonade. Next time, the mint will be up enough to add a couple of sprigs. Does anyone know how to nurse a potted cyclamen through the summer? Mine has been blooming consistently since Christmas, when it was given to me, but it’s down to two blossoms and some of the leaves are yellowing. According to Mr Google, that means I should let it dry out and go dormant. Now, cyclamens like cool conditions. I wonder whether my very chilly basement would be a good spot for it to spend the summer. Thoughts?
