Fantastic shots!
What an absolutely mind-boggling place Ashwoods is - cyclamen, hepaticas, helleborus,  lewisias .... the list goes on and on and they excel in everything.  The marvelous John Massey and his faithful Team are a force to be recognised and no mistake.  8)

Never, John - but I've enjoyed talks by John Massey ( one of the very best speakers) and seen lots of photos. I've got a Helleborus which  Diane C. got for me, I've grown Lewisias  from Ashwoods Carousel series and after I complained that Ian  Y. had been there AGAIN and brought me nothing ( his excuse is he couldn't carry anything on the plane) and asked Ian the Christie kind if he might be able to get me some (when he was there last week with Cyril ) I got a surprise visit yesterday from Ian and Ann C. - who appeared on the doorstep with a gift of Hepaticas from John Massey - Christmas came late to Craigton Road, but it came with a big bang!
I am a very lucky old bag!

Fantastic Cyclamen from Ashwood and Cherubeer

Cyclamen elegans
A perfect dome of Cyclamen persicum foliage  -  I was once told that you should be able to balance a perfectly grown persicum hybrid on its foliage but I wouldn't dare try it

Your not old maggi, your as young as you feel :D, next time Ian goes down that neck of the woods you want to make sure he take you, the hepaticas from there are great little plants. I have two when I went the other month. Great plants Sophia and Roma.

Too kind, John - I'm old enough to be your Mother  :o :o :o so I think I must be old!

The Hepaticas I've been given by John M. are beauts-  full of buds- those folk really know how to grow 'em!

Got round to resizing more Cyclamen pictures
Cyclamen creticum still in its seed pot in the house.  This was from my own seed from a plant I grew from CSE seed.  I lost all my C. creticum plants in the 2010-11 winter so I was very pleased to still have this one with the long petals but disappointed I no longer have the pink flowered one.

Hi Roma if I get a good seed set on my pink creticum you can have some later on when they ripen.

Thanks John.  It would be nice to get it back again.  Let me know if you would like seed of any of my plants.

Couple of libanoticums - the first one is the "typical" form in cultivation - the second one with pinker more pointed petals is from Archibald seed - from a collection made by Eliot Hodgkin.
