Cyclamen coum should be blooming any day now and I would like them to hurry up.

I have a large potful of C. coum. The flowers are lingering at soil level.  Seems they are waiting for something....

We had the first bloom on a Cyclamen hederifolium last week! And it's not even mid-summer!

Erle - That is beautiful silver leaf form!

If we have the sun which is forecast for this week, mine should finally be blooming.

Here is C. kuznetzovii from Janis - I know it is a form of C. coum in many peoples' eyes.

A couple of young Cyclamen coum seedlings (sown in 2009) are flowering here now in all kinds of pink.

Wim - Your young'ins are all very beautiful.  Still waiting patiently for mine or maybe impatiently waiting is more correct. ;)

Thanks Julie,

I know how the "impatiently waiting"  ;) feels, in this case I only had to wait for 2 years....most bulbs take a lot longer to start flowering from seed
I'm looking forward to seeing some pics of your Cyclamen when they are in bloom, and of your Trillium of course, I read your a Trill-addict!

Arnold - very nice coloring on the Yayladagi. 

Unfortunately, it will be even longer before I'll have any blooming. We had a dusting of snow this morning with possibly more to come.

A couple leaves of C. mirabile showing through the snow.

A couple of Cyclamen alpinum both grown from seed. The first two, unlike me, I didn't record my seed source but it must have been one or other of the Exchanges. The second two from SRGC 07/08-1044 sown August 2008

Some Cyclamen coum.

Cyclamen coum 'Golan Heights'

C. coum from seed SRGC 07/08-1054 labelled as Silver Leaf form sown August 2008. The leaf doesn't look particularly silvery to me?

C. coum from seed SRGC 07/08-1049 sown September 2008.
