Krajem vegetacijske sezone cvate manji broj biljnih vrsta, a one koje cvatu uglavnom se koriste kao biljne vrste za uređivanje interijera. Cilj ovog rada je prikazati taksonomsku pripadnost i porijeklo ciklame, način uzgoja, mogućnosti primjene te mjere njege i održavanja. Rod Cyclamen pripada porodici Primulaceae. Komercijalno najvažnija vrsta je Cyclamen persicum Mill. koja potječe s krajnjeg istoka Mediterana. Uzgaja se iz sjemena, u polusjeni, pri temperaturama 18-20 °C i uz 50-70 % relativne vlage zraka. Potrebna je konstantna, ali umjerena razina hraniva koju treba prilagođavati razvoju biljke. Ciklami, premda se koristi kao sobna lončanica, više odgovara primjena u uvjetima nižih temperatura pa su idealne za primjenu na hladnim verandama i stubištima, ostakljenim ulaznim prostorima. Mogu se koristiti i kao cvjetna vrsta za rez. Kombinacijom različitih kultivara dulje i kraće vegetacije, nastoji se osigurati opskrba tržišta ciklamama od početka jeseni do kraja zime. Cyclamen are mainly used as plant species for interior decoration. The aim of this work is to show the taxonomic affiliation and origin of cyclamen, its’ morphology, the method of cultivation, the possibilities of implementation so as care and maintenance. The genus Cyclamen belongs to the Primulaceae family. The most commercially important species is Cyclamen persicum Mill. which originates from the far east of the Mediterranean. It is grown from seed, in partial shade, at temperatures of 18-20 °C and with 50-70% relative humidity. A constant but moderate level of nutrients is needed, which should be adapted to the growth of the plant. Although cyclamen are used as indoor potted plants, they are more suitable for use in conditions of lower temperatures, so they are ideal for use on cold verandas and staircases, glazed entrance areas. They can also be used as a cut flower. By combining different cultivars with longer and shorter growing seasons, we try to supply the market with cyclamen from the beginning of autumn to the end of winter.
