Cyclamen 2015

[Maggi Young]

.......I assume some people who went to the open day at Wisley last week, also saw this hederifolium (the second picture) in the venue - the colour was so dark - almost black! I'd never seen this dark hederifolium before.....I just wanted to share this picture with those who didn't go.

  That is exceptionally dark - and rather beautiful. Thank you for sharing it with us, Naoto

For special cyclamen you need to go to Cyclamen Autumn Show 11 October in Wisley. Green-Ice-Nursery will be there. I have visit the nursery previous Saturday, they have an impressive collection. http://www.bravenboer.tk/

I didn't take a picture of the note but as far as I remember it said "was given as Ruby Glow, but flowered in very dark colour" or something. On the same day, I saw a couple of Ruby Glow and Rosenteppich in both the venue and Wisley's alpine house but I wasn't that impressed with the colours - they all looked just normal pinky hederifoilim to me.

Thank you, Naoto It's really a case of a kite breeding a hawk

Hi
There have been some pictures of dark Cyclamen hederifolium recently. The first picture below is a plant that I bought as C. hederifolium 'Red Sky'. Quite good, but not nearly as dark as the plant in the second picture that was bought in a local garden centre several years ago.

Quite a few were on sale in full flower and this was by far the darkest one - a really deep dark crimson. As I remember, they were all forms of C. hederifolium 'Ivy Ice'. The plant in the background is 'Ivy Ice Deep Rose' which was bought at the same time.

There is a white Cyclamen hederifolium at either end of the gravel bed in front of the house.  The one at the west end is usually first to flower but was last this year.  The one at the other end has been flowering a long time.  It has lovely silver leaves but seedlings have germinated on top of it and their leaves are not so good.  There was also a pink flower.  I suppose the only solution is to lift it and remove the small ones but I am reluctant to disturb a happy plant.
Another white in the greenhouse and
Cyclamen hederifolium 'Silver Anne'

Cyclamen graecum - 9 flowers and a bud    Rather poor compared to the show plants seen down south but for N.E. Scotland not bad.
