Autumn Snowdrop close up

You know Brian I put in some extra Cyclamen in my garden and they have flowered and flowered....what a pleasure!

Linda the Cyclamen fair a lot better in the open ground than this snowdrop.With me it fails to flower outside so what you are seeing are growing in a trough with over head cover.They come originally from the Taigetos Mountains of the Peloponnese and for that reason need summer warmth to ripen and flower.I believe in more recent years they have been found growing on other Greek Islands.

I did wonder Brian as my Snowdrops only flower in the spring. How lovely....we are just back from Greece and I have to say it is a lot warmer than here. :0)

Beautiful little flowers and so nice to have them in the autumn ........

I didn´t know, that cyclamen comes form Peloponese...that is interesting.

Katarina
Its the Snowdrop that comes from Peloponese.
Not explaining my self very well am I.

Lol, Brian, thanks. No, you are correct, I am just not as good in colloquial English and plants as you are :))

Katarina I remembered that wild cyclamen do grow there Cyclamen Repandum Peloponnesiacum is very beautiful spring flowering form.I did grow it for a few years but did not like the growing conditions I could offer at the time and faded away
