Cyclamen Hederifolium "Dark Purple Form" (Cyclamen hederifolium (Hardy cyclamen))

Purchased from Green Ice Nursery, Holland at CS Autumn Fair last month.

It is stunning blue-ish "dark purple" flower. Probably the darkest flower colour among cyclamen species????

Thank you, guys!

When I have been growing this in a coldframe or alpine house, the colour becomes a bit reddish, but when it's exposed to cold temperature, it becomes really dark like this > FYI.
