CYCLAMEN COUM - MAGENTA
at Hoo House

Selected for the rich magenta of the flowers up to 7cm (3 in) from December to March. Prefers well drained soil in shade.
Similar leaves to C. coum. Sometimes the flowers are fragrant. They are one of the hardiest and easiest species, seeding themselves around freely in the garden once established. Naturally distributed along an arc from Bulgaria to Israel, including the Caucasus..
