noticed in Homebase trays of cyclamen (mixed colours) On reading the label it said that these plants only flower for the ONE season.Unless there is an annual species somewhere I have never heard of, all cyclamen are tuberous perennials. Anyone shed light on this?

Of course they must flower again, but it could be that they are not really hardy outside in the winter. They are probably selling them for autumn use, but overwintered in the greenhouse they could be alright.

Yes, I agree with Cherry - you've got to bring them in for the winter. They're frost tender.
