Cyclamen

[grenadier]

Can anyone tell me how to tell the difference between C. Hederifolium and C. Coum flowers. I know that they both flower at different times, but is it possible to tell the difference from the flowers alone. I ask because I bought four reduced priced ones in a pack which were in flower from my local GC    but alas no label. 
Any help appreciated.

The flowers of coum are dumpy and have no auricles at the base.  The flowers of hederifolium are more elongated and have auricles.  The leaves are also different, coum has rounded leaves and hederifolium more pointed.  If the plants you bought are in flower now, then it is very likely they are coum as hederifolium flowers from late summer to autumn.  See pictures below for more detail,

Thank you for that information Diane and the great photographs,it answered my question very clearly. I am now happy that I have C. Coum.
