Found this Cyclamen flowering in my rockgarden,
where I thought to have only C. coum,
but this one doesn't look like coum to me ..... what do you think ?
looks like C.pseudoibericum close related to coum, crosses to libanoticum are possible

Neat height to the flowers, Tony.

They are all like that.I collected the seed at the top of the Zigana Pass at just over 2000 metres its highest  elevation. I think the lower level ones grow taller.

Can someone with relevant experience please help me out with a bit of advice? I have a couple of pots of Cyclamen graceum seedlings, one year old bulbs now actively growing. I need to pot these up into a bigger pot but they are clearly over-crowded and I'm not sure if it's safe to break them up and space them out a bit? See attached picture.

I sometimes use a bowl full of water and float them apart. The roots are quite long, but not too tangled together. If the compost is loose, I just gently tip the pot out and pull them apart without the need for water.

And that won't set them back Anthony? I haven't unpotted and repotted cyclamens except when they are dormant so I wasn't sure...

Does anyone know who donated seeds of Cyclamen rohlfsianum #1236 to the SRGC seed ex for 2014-15?

 I have grown a small pot of these seedlings are they are very distinctive with thick shiney leaves (shown in first 2 photos)
 that are quite different from the standard form of Cyclamen rohlfsianum that i have seen (shown in 3rd photo).

i was wondering if this was a locality variation.

i have tried 3 times to rotate and re-post these photes but they still are sideways.

i added 2 more picture of the succulent seedlings that should be upright.
