Watering a potted plant from above with care

It does not harm the plant if watering is careful and the water is guided onto the surface of the soil rather than directly hitting foliage or stems. Proper technique minimizes splash and root disturbance.

Plant Care Tip: Avoid Soil Washing on Cyclamen Roots

The guidance notes prevent washing away soil from the crown or allowing liquid to reach the crown, which can cause decay. Cyclamen is particularly susceptible to this injury, so care should be taken to keep the crown dry and protected during watering and cultivation.
