Cyclamen africanum is a species of flowering plant in the family Primulaceae.

[2] It is referred to by the common name African cyclamen and is a perennial growing from a tuber, native to northern Algeria, Morocco and Tunisia.

Both the leaves and flowers are similar to Cyclamen hederifolium, but are larger on average.

Plants sold by nurseries are often hybrids between the two species (Cyclamen ×hildebrandii O. Schwarz).

This robust hybrid is more hardy than Cyclamen africanum and can be planted outside in a sheltered place.
