I agree with Melvyn the last one is  fantastic,but i think there are three or four super leaf patterns i would love on my plants,love the arrow head shaped ones as well.
I noticed the Samantha Tag ;D.Our lass who is from Londen(Hackney)has said the only reason why your's flowered and nobody  else's has is because Samantha is back home  ;D ;D ;D

I am very partial to cyclamen - they're almost rank as highly as crocus in my estimation  ;)
Even I must admit that cyclamen have the edge in the foliage stakes!

Crassense?    ???  Tell us more. Is this a var. or ssp. of hederifolium?

Superb cyclamen foliage on #7 as noted every time we see it John.

Lina, Maggie and Paddy - thank you.   :)

Glad you like them Davey - it is your fault I spent 60 mins this morning taking pics and resizing them!!!  ;D

Very glad to hear I haven't bored everyone with a Cyclamen overload!   ;D

Melvyn - I thought you might like that one.  It was the favourite of Arthur and Chris when they visited.

Mark - I've always just thought of it as a hederifolium form - but I don't know a lot about Cyclamen - I just choose ones with nice leaves when I see them in plant sales.

Johnw - I don't think I have taken a picture of plant 7 before today - so interesting for me to read these posts.

John - I think we spied the cyclamen #7 in a shot of snowdrops that you posted early in the year, around the time you went to The Garden House meeting.
