I have a well established plot of CH, due to some home extension work I am having to dig the large tubers up, I would like to replant them in the spring. Questions:- 1. Is it possible to lift and replant? 2. During the time the tubers are not going to be in the soil how do I look after them ? Any advice would be appreciated theses plants are about 18 years old and always provides my garden with an abundance of colour.
Dig up tubers using a garden shovel or trowel. Although cyclamen corms or tubers can be transplanted while in bloom, it is easiest to transplant tubers while they are in the dormant stage.
Move into pots while you wait for your spring planting.

My cyclamen plant has been blossoming continuously for over three years but has started to have fewer leaves and they are turning yellow. Can I transplant it when it is blossoming? This has been an indoor plant.
You are lucky that yours has been blooming for three years! Most people throw them out after they finish blooming the first time.
It is best to repot in the summer when they are dormant. Here is how:

My mom's cyclamen has long woody stems coming from the bulb and the leaves and blossoms come from the end of these 3-4" stems. It's quite unsightly. What can be done?
This sounds like how the plant grows naturally. You can prune out anything dead and make an attempt to divide the plant into multiple containers. It won't hurt to leave them, though. The stems should die back once you remove the tubers for winter or put the containers into dormancy.

I got this plant while it was in full bloom last Feb.It never lost it's leaves after blooming.It actually looks pretty healthy.,but it isn't doing much of anything as far as blooming or growing.I had been in the hospital and I think while I was in there was when it lost it's leaves.When I got home I thought it was dying for lack of care so I fed and watered it and it came back to life,or more likely woke up from it's nap.Is there any way to get it to bloom again ?
I have had a cyclamen for years,I just keep it moist and occasionally it re flowers.The leaves look healthy and I always remove them once they go yellowish.If I go away,I stand it in an inch of water.That lasts a week,if you are away longer,my neighbour looks after my plants.Hope it re flowers for you.
Why do say don't cultivate cyclamen from leaf stems? My family has been doing it that for years, with great success. You don't give any explanation for your position!
After doing some research, I didn't find any reputable source that recommended propagating cyclamen from stem or leaf cuttings. Especially florist cyclamen, it is recommended to enjoy them while they bloom, then discard.
Hardy cyclamen are easy to grow from seed or by dividing the tubers. Is it hardy cyclamen you grow from leaves? Your successes must be due to exceptional skill. I suspect for most people, the leaves rot before they root.

Deer who wander into my yard often try eating plants that I know to be deer resistant. Before I spend money and time planting the cyclamen in my front yard, I would greatly appreciate your assistance. Thanks
Deer will eat anything. Even if it is labeled "deer resistant" it can still become a snack for them, unfortunately.
There are ways to keep them out of the area, though.
