The little Cyclamen blooms are so pretty, especially with the lovely patterned leaves. I want to get this Cyclamen (coum), the one I have blooms just the flowers before the leaves emerge, (hederifolium), so could not make this arrangement.Hannahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04773149110503024929noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8081101795597600004.post-3812017856197518322016-02-22T21:37:39.614+00:002016-02-22T21:37:39.614+00:00Cyclamen do have the effect of making me happy.

A shame that not everyone notices such simple beauty... How lovely to have the cyclamen showing they are happy by growing from your foraged seed capsules - and they are the sort of plant you don't mind seeding themselves about. I shall make a mental note of the self esteem builder nature of cyclamens - thanks for that...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8081101795597600004.post-8275162179915277882016-02-22T16:49:47.723+00:002016-02-22T16:49:47.723+00:00I love your sticks and stones...and what a wonderf...I love your sticks and stones...and what a wonderful essence cyclamen has. i hope to plant more and bring more inside too!Donna@Gardens Eye Viewhttp://gardenseyeview.comnoreply@blogger.com
