Cyclamen 2013
« on: January 06, 2013, 10:00:10 PM »
It seems that nobody take the lead to open the new Cyclamen year ...
I want to start with a few that flowers now ...

Cyclamen repandum 'Alba ' (very early in flower this year)
Cyclamen coum

Thanks to the mild winter the leaves of hederifolium are stil undamaged.
A slivery graecum seedling is at his best now . 

This hederifolium is climbing into this conifer.

Thanks Nicole , it is indeed one of the better seedlings. Seeds came from plants that I obtained from Peter Moore and wich are  labeled as graecum from Rhodopou. Rhodopou is known for his good silvers ....

Hello Kris, the silver leaf Cyclamen graecum from Rhodopou looks great, glad you found a one at Peters that produces excellent seedlings.

Thanks Melvyn , I must admit that I lost the original plant few years ago but fortunately I have 3 strong seedlings now with very good silver leaves.
I stil have very very good memories when I look back to my visits to Peter's nursery ! We  always had a great time there ,and the plants from his nursery have a special place in the collection ...

Arnold, I'm just wondering if this one is travelling under a "nom-de-plume" In Turkish (I think!) the word "Yayla" translates as alpine meadow or plateau, and the word "dag" (again I think!) translates as mountain, so could it be "Yayladag"?

Cyclamen alpinum grown from seed (SRGC 07/1070) sown August 2008.

I think it is named after a mountain in the Hatay where it was collected - Yayla Dag. I have seen it there(not that actual plant)

David + Tony ,

here the explanation :
The seed of this plant came from me  :D ( I have sent one portion to Arnold before many years )
By a trip in Turkey ( fall 2001 ) we visit the area near the syrain border -the village on the border is named Yayladagi ( there a now a lot of syrian people in camps ) -on the way back ( only few KM from Yayladagi ) we made a stop in a wood for a short break - there I have found some bulbs/corms on the open ground ( maybe wild pigs have dug it ) I take it with me without knowing what it is ...later the plants have flwered here and I could see it is a Cyclamen ...so I call it Cyclamen coum ex Yayladagi  ;D

Hans:

Thanks for the true story. I know the village is on the border.

It has grown well in spite  of some early years of poor management.

Isn't it lovely Gerd? I immediately fell in love with it, when I saw a picture of it. Jan was so nice to allow me to get one of the very few he has available at this moment. Within 1,5 years more will become available.
