White Cyclamen coum.

Beautiful. Mine are not flowering yet.

New again - the two I put in last year are in bud at the moment. I'm trying to get Cyclamen coum established under the ash tree with all the snowdrops.

I have a pink one in flower , it must have been in flower under the snow as it looks a bit worse for wear ..........

Do yours spread? I thought they were meant to, but I only planted two of them last year. I added these two...and I'm hoping, now!

Lovely Spritz........

I think that you need to collect the seeds and sow them where you want them to grow. I was given some seeds a few years ago and that is how I first got some going.

Why can't I leave them to seed themselves? Is there a reason? I thought that was supposed to happen - sort of 'naturalising' themselves.

I'm sure that they will naturalise but I think that collecting and sowing the seed is just a bit more certain. At least the seed doesn't get eaten or rot on the surface.

Not sure I can handle that, Toto - I think I'll leave them to do their own thing!

Ok Spritz. I suppose it's taking up a lot of your time feeding the badgers.

How lovely to have them growing amongst the snowdrops Spritz.We will be a few weeks behind you but our snowdrops are beginning to poke through...as are the crocus we planted last year !

Love this white one :~))

one of my all time favourite plants :o)

I have a feeling that they do naturalise themselves Barbara because I have them coming up in places were I know that I didn't put them , in different areas of the garden as well ... At this time of the year I see alot of bulbs laying on top of the soil I usually push them in anywhere and then wait to see what comes up ,, I think sometimes this is how plants move around ....

Do so like the white ones, we had a lovely selection made a really good show, decided to move the compost bin, and the shed, forgot about the cyclamen put the shed on top of them, realized too late!!

Oh NO, Dd! I would have been so upset! You'll have to start again. They are in the GCs now.

Toto - yes, they are rather - but repairing the nightly damage........it's a bit tedious to say the least!

Amy - I am living in hope. The C. hederifolium have spread really well, so I don't see any reason why these shouldn't.

Thats pretty.

Spritz I was in two minds as to moving the shed again.....would not have gone down too well with hubby though lol

I think I'd have insisted on a move, Dd - losing all your lovely Cyclamen! Such a shame. :-(

§:+((

Are you getting any more now they're in the GCs??

Bought some before Christmas, in pots waiting to go in again.........!!!

Before? Did you get C. hederifolium, then?

Will look at my garden file and check.......

Yes they were, lovely plants........put a picture on page two.
