Some Cyclamen cilicium near Akseki,Turkey,growing with Crocus cancellatus

Fantastic Tony ! And as we can see is cilicium the ideal rockgardenplant !
Please let them be free and not potbounded . It is a much underrated rockgardenplant.

A few graecum leaves from my garden today. The first and second rows are all ssp candicum. the third and fourth are all ssp anatolicum and the bottom is ssp graecum.

Thank you for your comments. The near black one is from one of three plants given to me by Jan Bravenboer who sells it as dark purple form, it is a late flower so it will not reach its full potential, normally the flower is a better shape and larger. The two red ones are plants from corfu that I look after for the Cyclamen society. When you see them together it is apparent why they key out to red group on the RHS colour chart and not purple.

Kris
     I think you are right it is a much better garden plant than people imagine and prefers a hotter drier spot than many other species. It does much better for me outside than it does in a pot. And by the way that is a pretty good leaf form for cilicium.

Thank you Pat . I find it some years ago at Hans Kramers nursery (Hessenhof) Everybody search in the large trays with hederifolium and the ciliciums get no attention.

I don't know what I did to my repotting mix last Spring but leaves have grown far too big and out of scale.  Perhaps it was the blood & bone meal. Here's rohlfsianum.  The persicums are bigger than my hand with flowers towering 35cm overhead.
