Good grief, you have the memory of an elephant JohnW  :o
(must be all the buns he eats.....)

Not so fast Maggi unless that elephant was Dumbo.  Overnight I realized it was not JohnF who posted the cyclamen #7 pic before but a lady who was riding with him to a snowdrop event and took pix in his garden.  Maybe Jennie or the forumist with the snowdrop hat ..... who name - apologies - escapes me.

johnw - damn cold here +7c

Neither do I get tired of looking at the pictures here - I try to establish a swath of Cyclamen in my woodland. Last winter killed a few but some remains. These are unnamed seedlings of an unnamed cross.

Nice cilicium - I'm still looking for the right spot for them in this garden.

In the meantime, an C.africanum that is a little darker than the others I have.

Autumn is finally reaching this area,
here are the first cyclamen to set flowers.

I'm the proud father of a new very dark form of C. confusum X africanum made by crossing the darkest forms i grow.
I have received two types, one with a stem 25cm long the other much shorter but with a touch of white color on the back side of the petals.
Sorry the photos are quite dark too...

Some beautiful cyclamen Oron and everyone.
Nice to see them, especially as Cyclamen suffered most in the big freeze here last winter.  I lost almost all of my potted C graecum, many plants I had grown for up to 20 years from seed  :'(

Oron, lovely pics.

Do you have a pic of the dark africanum you used for the cross?

I wonder the coldest place in Northern Europe where C. hederifolium grows naturally.  Seems we must grow ones with a very good provenance to have this species survive long-term.

johnw - 60-90mm on the way, maybe 60mm on Monday and 139mm the previous week.  No frost in sight and 19c tomorrow.
