Cyclamen seed.

New plants may be raised by collecting the golden-brown seed as soon as the capsules split in summer.

Soak the seed for 24 hours and sow 2.5cm (1in) apart in trays of John Innes seed compost. Place in a shady position at a regular temperature of around 16C (60F), however germination may be erratic. Pot on year-old seedlings and grow for another year before planting outside permanently.
