Cyclamen 2015

[Mark Griffiths]

taken a few weeks ago, Cyclamen confusum and C. hederifolium crassifolium. Both of these were from the CSE hederifolium collection a few years back and then were allocated to the different species and subspecies and then suddenly I had a new species in the collection

took some pictures of Cyclamen cyprium leaves the other day, here are a selection.

the final one is supposed to be E.S form but I don't think it's quite right. I had E.S from Peter Moore and it was more splashed with cream, not much of a symetrical pattern.

Some lovely things there mark.  I particularly like plant 3. Jan bravenboer has selected some lovely plants in the last few years but I think there is still more to come from cyprium.

The update of the website is work in progress. By this time next year you will see a major difference. As with all these things it is done by volunteers who also have lives to lead.

Many thanks for that Pat and I'm glad work on the website is ongoing. I think I should add that everything that happens within SRGC happens as a result of the labours of volunteers of which I play just a small part so I know what it is like. I did consider offering my help when a quest was made in one of the Cyclamen Society Journals for volunteers to assist with updating the website but formed the view that my knowledge of the genus was woefully small as was my ability to get to grips with the technical aspects of websites and I wouldn't be much good.

Mark that's a nice selection of leaf's forms, the "quercus" ones are singular.

[Graeme]

very nice Mark - the third one down really took my eye

[Mark Griffiths]

thanks everyone. I'm keen on that third one too - that was from Cyclamen Society seed (actually they all are) - it didn't flower this year but I hope next year it will and I can get seed off it.

Still a few flowers on Cyclamen rohlfsianum which started flowering in September.  The leaves are well up now.  They get a bit lanky being on a windowsill in the house.The two outer ones have similar leaves but the centre one is a bit different.  It's flowers are also a bit deeper in colour.

One flower fully open today on one of my psuedibericum . Crazy weather! .

[Mark Griffiths]

Thorkild, looks like hederifolium ssp hederifolium to me

[Thorkild Godsk]

Thanks for the answer, Mark Griffiths.

Not much going on here at the moment, but C. hederifolium ex Zakynthos (one of the plants that Roma brought to the DWE sales table in 2014) is looking and smelling good. I was amazed at the size increase of the tuber - it literally burst it's pot last summer. Thanks, Roma!

[Mark Griffiths]

can anyone remember the distribution of C.confusum because the leaves on that look like my C.confusum - if they are shiny. The flowers on mine are strongly scented.
