Oh dear, already? Mind you, we had our first cyclamen hederifolium in flower on election day (8th June).  This was shortly after the heavy rain which broke 6 weeks of drought.
Let's hope these 2 early flowerings are not an early autumn....

I have never had flowers of Acis tingitana. 

Acis ionica has started, one flower stem for me and two killed by slugs.

Acis rosea has started to flower today. Exactly at the same day at two completely different places.

After diner i've sweeped the greenhouse's floor and checking pots, i've seen the first sign of life. Acis are already in buds, will water tomorrow morning. Very early season, looks like the switch between summer and autumn gonna be quick.

I would be interested to know how members grow Acis autumnale in the garden. It has such delicate stems and flowers I have never tried other than in large pots. The only place I can recall is at Rosemoor, where it is/was grown under a large tree with very little competition. Thought about in my drive but it would be visually lost against the gravel.
