Bulbs for shade ?

I'm in zone 5, probably 5b going on 6, and Cyclamen are tricky here.

The squirrels, ate C. coum as fast as I could plant them. C. purpureum
never came up after planting, so I suspect squirrels in their case as
well. C. hederifolium lasted several years in one spot, disappeared
without a trace in several other spots. All are long gone now.

So Cyclamen seem to be marginal at best here in the Midwest.

I would love to plant loads of autumn flowering Cyclamen hederifolium
