Cyclamen Society Annual Conference 2009

[ian mcenery]

Last Sunday saw the above event which as always was a show, the AGM and some talks during the afternoon. All in all a good event

Here are a couple of plants from the show including the best in show by Cyclamen graecum anatolicum shown by Ian Robertson amnd a few other ayt random. There were other forum members present so perhaps they will post also

The close up is a poor shot (the light was not good) of the a new hederiflium collected on a recent trip by the Society  but the colour was the reddest colour I have seen

[Maggi Young]

Thank goodness you posted these pictures, Ian... of course we will all enjoy seeing them, but they may prove a life-saver for Diane, who was beside herself with angst at not being able to see the show while "detained" at the AGS conference in Stratford on Avon!  Her plaintiff criesat the prospect of being denied her clyclamen "fix" were piteous to hear, I tell you!

Indeed! the withdrawal symptoms were dreadful.          

Thanks for these Ian, much appreciated.  The red one is a stunner.  Was the hederifolium with the pale-centred leaf one of Melvyn's do you remember?  If you don't, perhaps Melvyn will tell us himself

Diane I can't remember I was probably doing too much talking  . It was very different. Melvyn if you are out there

Yes Maggi I know  I heard the sad story from Diane

Here is one I forgot

Thanks for taking us to the show, Ian!
That "red hed" is amazing but I guess if there are red C. persicum varieties then the gene must be in their make-up somewhere! Now to find a pure yellow
cheers

Thanks Ian for showing this extraordinary plants!
Hope this great red hederifoliums will become a bit more common in nearer future.

Sorry, I picked up on this thread a bit late and have to respond that the C. hederifolium was not one of mine but it was me that took the red hederifolium and with the way the bumblebees have been so active over the last few days there should be a good seed set.
You were missed Diane!

Hi Yijiawang

If you join the Cyclamen Soc, you can apply for a basic allocation of seeds from the annual seed distribution.
More seeds can also be purchased.
