Sensational cyclamen



The seasonal clock is turning, now, with cyclamen hederifolium flowers.


Battalions of white to cerise flags on the woodland floor.



Food for pollinators, their sticky seeds are distributed by ants.

Apparently, also called ‘sowbread’. Presumably the huge swollen  
underground tubers are relished by rootling pigs.
