I bought some seed packages of hardy Cyclamen from plant world seeds. I was wondering if anyone has tips on germinating these. I'm having a new obsession with these plants. Love the leaves as much or more than the flowers.

I gather seed from my silver cyclamen every year and put itin small pots with a very light cover of soil. Then just leave them out in the weather. Usually they germinate the following year.
