Can't get enough of this fine (and smelling good)Cyclamen.

One of my favourites and, surprisingly, I've not had a sniff at it. Will remedy that in the winter when they start to flower.

Strange Cyclamen coum 'Golan Heights'

These are the first flowers of a plant which I bought as 'Golan Heights'.
In bud they have a slight pink shade but when developed fully they seem to be pure white with the exception of the odd bicolored one.

I would be glad if there will be someone who is able to confirm the validity of the plant.

The question of validity of cyclamen names seems to me to be always somewhat unsatisfactory as all plants are raised from seed and therefore to some extent variable. The question for sellers and buyers is how close does the plant need to be to the original to warrant the name?
Having said that your plant seems similar to plants I've grown from Cyclamen Society seed and to fit the original description ie with plain green leaves and an unmarked white flower.

Gordon,
- so it is! Thank you for this additional confirmation!

Cyclamen persicum
Cylamen repandum hyb.?

[Maggi Young]

Cyclamen persicum
Cylamen repandum hyb.?

Why might that be a hybrid and not just C. repandum, Michael?

[Michael J Campbell]

Maggi,because when I post it as Repandum somebody will surely tell me it is not correct. So I always put a ? to be sure to be sure.

Cyclamen rhodium ssp peloponnesiacum, positive. Pat

[Maggi Young]

C. rhodium subsp. peloponnesiacum  is a synonym for C. repandum ssp. peloponnesiacum isn't it, Pat? We're supposed to call it rhodium rather than repandum, though?

Maggi
 No, C repandum is now a seperate species, C rhodium is also now a seperate species and has 2 ssp, ssp peloponnesiacum  and  ssp  vividum.  Confused ? so am I. Pat
