All my jungle plants are now slowly going to sleep.   :'( 

But some of my bulbs are waking up.   ;D

Here is one that is making me stop and look at the moment.

The following pics were made yesterday in Erich Pasches garden. I prefer to show them alltogether here without separating them to Crocus, Cyclamen etc.

1. Callirhoe involucrata
2. Begonia sutherlandii
3. + 4. Cyclamen colchicum
5. + 6. Cyclamen hederifolium cultivated in an interesting manner
7. Cyclamen cilicicum

Gerd,
what a fun way of planting cyclamen :D
Do you know if they were planted as seedlings in the pot or just as flowering size tubers? Is there a risk that the growing tubers will split the pot? ???
cheers

a lovely garden--i especially like the cyclamen coming up through the tiny groundcover leaves and the begonia!
i really cant understand why, when there are such lovely species, people want to grow those monstrous hybrid begonais  ;)

Fermi,
I am sure, the Cyclamen were planted as tubers and within the next 5 years there is little risk that they will destroy the pot - maybe in the distant future.
Unfortunately I wasn't able to ask Erich Pasche himself because he left for Turkey yesterday.

Cohan,
That's exactly my point of view and I guess we are not alone here.

1, 2) Epilobium canum ssp. garrettii (was Zauschneria garrettii)
3) First flower on Lilium henryi
4) Another shot of Nymphaea 'Albert Greenberg', tropical daybloomer
5) Artemisia versicolor 'Sea Foam', looking to me very much like my favorite lichen.
6, 7) Scilla scilloides has chosen to bloom this year... a rare event.
8 ) Nymphaea 'Crystal', tropical daybloomer.
9) Another Silene regia to round out the late bloomers... not many left to go.

very nice fall show... yellow is slowly creeping into the landscape here, feel like we are on borrowed time! though i have to say, i like the changing of the colour of grasses and crops--green is lovely, but i get tired of it ;)
very pleased to see the epilobium doing well for you, since i was interested in it, and saw a marginal hardiness rating somewhere (beavercrrek?); the scilla is gorgeous, and really nice close-up...

Still so many wonderful flowering plants from your garden, Lori, it really is a treasure trove of delights - can't bear the thought of it all ending  :'(  but then I am sure you will surprise us with winter flowering beauties  :D

Love the Nymphaea 'Crystal' and Silene regia
