I have seen cyclamen with smaller than usual white flowers. Unfortunately I do not have a photo (yet). What is the name of this variety? I'm only interested in white, and preferably without the varigated leaves.
My research came up with Cyclamen persicum mini. I also saw 'Winfall White' as the series. Here are varieties listed on the Cyclamen Society page:

Mary Dwyer writes “Don’t disturb well established tubers” regarding hardy cyclamen. I have a large one that came with the house but I’d like to move it to a more suitable location. Should I not move it? If I do, will it not do well?
They don't like to move well if there is no need, but moving it to a better location is justified. It would be a good idea to do so as soon as the heat breaks, but before cold weather.
Hardy cyclamen are taking over my yard and crowding out my native plants and producing seed in massive quantities that are spread by ants. Will anything kill them ? They are pretty but I’m very sorry I planted them.
To stop the reseeding, you would need to deadhead the flowers, which would be a chore unless they are in a place where you can mow or weed-eat them. The places where they are in large groups, you can spray with a product containing glyphosate to kill them. The ones that are among desirable plants you will need to dig up, and be sure to get the whole tuber or it will regrow.
They don't like a lot of water, especially in summer, so overwatering may kill them. You can also cover them with dirt or mulch to prevent light.
My cyclamen stopped blooming at least a month ago. I have been watering it with a suitable fertilizer to prepare it to bloom again after I start to withhold water, and the leaves die, and it goes dormant. But now it is producing a new crop of buds. What should I do? I had one which did the same thing last year, and had over 50 blooms, but had very few this winter, and then got diseased. I would like to avoid a repeat of that situation.
If there was a disease present, then this could definitely be related. You mentioned noticing a disease in another plant, so it is possible that it has been transmitted through contact or soil.
I really can't say much from here, other than knowing that it is an extreme stress of some kind. But your local extension can help test for disease with samples.

Can I plant Cyclamen between Many roots under my trees ?
People do plant under their trees, but it's really not the best thing to do. Trees have feeder roots within the top 12 inches of soil. Planting under the tree will disturb those roots. The best thing to do for trees is add 2 to 3 inches of mulch out to the dripline. Also, whatever you plant will be competing with the tree for water and nutrients.
If you really want to plant, be very careful and try not to dig very deeply. Here is more:

The cyclamen is not overwatered but it drains black water from the pot that has stained the patio. Not even pressure washing gets the stain off completely. The cyclamen is healthy and has even flowered in August in Georgia. I've kept cyclamens for a long time and can often keep one alive through the seasons for 2-4 years. I use the same brand of potting soil in all of my containers and I never had a plant do this. I have not used fertilizer in this plant. Should I repot? I'm afraid that might kill the plant but I've got to get this black runoff to stop. I could set the pot at the edge of the lawn but it is under the patio roof now where it gets indirect sun and is protected from GA thunderstorms. Thank you.
Could it be the container and not the soil? The container is dark gray.
This should not be the annual drooping.Is there a way to get the flowers to stand up again after sudden drooping, 3 days after purchase, no watering done yet? The soil still feels damp(ish).
Cyclamen can be fussy, especially after a move! Sudden drooping right after purchase is usually from stress—changes in light, temperature, or humidity can do it. Since the soil still feels damp, don’t water yet; overwatering can make things worse. Place the plant in a cool, bright spot away from direct sunlight and heat sources. If the roots aren’t rotting, it might perk back up once it adjusts. You can also try misting lightly for humidity, but give it a few days before panicking—it’s likely just settling into its new home.
