Cyclamen cilicium

These gorgeous tiny cyclamen were given to me by BJS last year, their beautiful pure white flowers really shine out of a shady border.

A joy to have Louise......I've never been able to keep cyclamen from one year to the next, you must have the perfect place....:o)

Thanks folks :-)
Janey, these live in an area that might surprise you ..... they get only light shade and not all day either, perhaps half the day and are under my euphorbia mellifera and a shrub rose and nestle amongst epimediums and a metrosiderous ..... so a fairly dry-ish area too.
There are other perennials there aswell and these look wonderful shining out amongst other foliage :-)

Looking great don't forget to tap the end of the flower to pollinate.
I do believe lots of this group are mixing up these little gems with the B&Q 6 packs of Cyclamen Persicum which rot in the UK climate come December
