The fall bloomers are just getting going - C hederifolium & cilicium And the winter bloomers are just putting up leaves (C coum). My C cilicium is barely planted - the entire bulb is showing above ground (#1 & 2). I presume I should replant deeper, but it\'s thriving - hate to mess up a good thing. C hederifolium alba is a scary jumble of blooming shoots - just getting started (#3). It will be a remarkable display of pure white flowers in the next week or two. C coum on the other hand is just putting up foliage. Here are two small potted plants of C coum (#4 & 5), the one on the Rt is the cultivar Christmas Tree. I like cyclamen in the shade under thirsty trees where other things don\'t thrive. They want to be dry in summer - the tree roots make sure of that. They have done really well for me - I love the fact that they put up foliage and bloom at such strange times, when a little life in the garden is appreciated. |
