As Lesley says, graecum have long, fleshy roots. You are bound to damge them but they will grow again - just do your best and don't dare to leave the plants behind.

Hi,

Cyclamen graecum are coming along nicely here now.  Attached are a few photos taken in the greenhouse this afternoon.

What a display! And I bet there'll be some lovely leaves after the flowers too.
