The Society usually holds four shows each year, including one in conjunction with an annual conference featuring illustrated lectures. They are often staged at the RHS Garden at Wisley or at the Birmingham Botanical Gardens. However, the Society seeks to schedule events at different locations, to enable a wider portion of the membership to attend, so other meetings and shows may be held and will be advertised here.

Members wishing to enter plants or photographs for competition, are advised before entering to read the society’s competition rules in the Show Policy, or contact the Show Secretary shows@cyclamen.org.

Members are also invited to bring any surplus plants (cyclamen, or other plants likely to interest cyclamen growers) to sell. You will be expected to donate 25% of the proceeds to the Society. Plants for sale should have two labels, one with the name of the plant, the other with the seller’s name and price.
