Cyclamen Hederifolium

A grey day today but we seem to have escaped most of the rain, some really dark clouds though. Sorry to say it's a flower again, taken just after a shower this morning. Apparently these cyclamens have been popular since the sixteenth century and come in various shades of pink and also white. I love the way they have curly stalks which shoot up and flower,later getting grey green ivy shaped leaves. Its nice to have some colour this time of year.
