71 Varieties tested and approved

The OUTstanding Cyclamen® selection currently includes 71 rigorously validated varieties, covering a wide range of flower sizes, plant architectures, and usage scenarios.

From small-flowered outdoor champions such as METIS®, TIANIS®, and INDIAKA®, to more structured formats like MIDI+® and the elegant PETIT MOULIN®.

The range is further enriched by the fragrant signature of ABSOLU® de MOREL, combining outdoor performance with a distinctive sensory dimension.

This diversity allows professionals to build coherent outdoor assortments, adapted to multiple climates, container sizes, and consumer expectations.

Tested under Mediterranean conditions

All OUTstanding Cyclamen® varieties are evaluated at our outdoor trial station in Fréjus, France, under Mediterranean conditions.

Trial protocol:

• Plants are grown in bowls and fully acclimatized

• Placed outdoors in full sun, with no shelter

• Exposed continuously to heat, wind, rain, and hydric stress

Each variety is scored according to:

• Vigour and resistance to water stress

• Flower abundance and foliage quality

• Uniformity and overall outdoor performance

Only varieties achieving a minimum score of 7/10 earn the OUTstanding® label, ensuring objective, repeatable, and field-relevant validation.
