I would get a fertiliser to stengthen the roots and top dress.

Pieris and azalea are both acid lovers, so you could try adding some iron sulphate around them - if they are short of iron the leaves go rather yellow and unhealthy looking.
That wouldn't apply to the cyclamen though. They are susceptible to vine weevil so it might be worth having a look at the roots if it looks seriously sick enough to risk disturbing it.

If your Pieris has been planted less than 3 years, and you've had very dry weather, like a lot of us have, then its suffering from drought.
