Great set of photos Pat and thanks for showing.  :o ::)

Loved the combination with white tall flowers ::) A very rare one I guess. ;D Maybe something to strive for?
Did You also see variation in flower types and colours?

Looking forwards to further posting
Kind regards

The new sub species was described in the June Journal of the Cyclamen Society.  If you are good I will let you read my copy when you visit  8)

Hi Tony
           The last 3 plants are from sites where ssp crassifolium is known to grow and I would be happy to call them that. I am not a botanist or a scientist just someone who grows plants, however I have been involved with the society field trips that led to to the conclusions regarding ssp crassifolium and cyclamen confusum as it is now. I do feel we still have work to do to determine the distribution because there are sites where it seems ssp crassifolium and ssp hederifolium grow together or close to each other. I know it is not very scientific but you get a gut feeling for what you are looking at and can tell the difference but as I say more work needs to be done and possibly new material collected for research.
