Cyclamen graecum

  • Latin: Cyclamen graecum

AUTUMN-FLOWERING. The flowers, which resemble those of Cyclamen hederifolium, emerge at the end of summer, just before or simultaneously with the leaves. A remarkable feature is that the flower stalk coils up like a corkscrew from the middle of the stalk, unlike most other species where this occurs from the top of the stalk. The leaves are very diverse among themselves and often beautifully decorated with cream, gray, or silvery flames and patterns. The combinations here are endless! (text: Wikipedia) Give this cyclamen a very warm spot in the summer, possibly in a greenhouse, otherwise they will not flower. Keep it moist and plant it in drained soil with some pine needle soil. Protect well during harsh winters.
