Here's a group of my coum, some have quite a few buds too.



Coum or elegans?









And as usual, an unlabeled one. The shot does not do it justice, the contrast between the sliver and dark is very striking.

I like the group shot, Terry. Your cyclamen collection is coming along nicely, don't you think?

I don't think that the mystery plant is elegans. Is the flower bud in shot on the same plant? If it is, I would say that the bud is too dumpy - it should be longer than that at this stage and you would probably have had a flower or two by now. The leaf doesn't look quite right either. Please post a photo when a flower opens though, just so we can rule it out completely.

Ok, Tim, I will try to remember to post a photo when the flower opens.

The last photo in the series is also a mystery, any guesses or is a better photo needed? It seems a bit more pointed then my other coum, I just threw it in here rather than start a new thread.

Terry, your coum look like a nice healthy and varied lot! I particularly like the frosty one with the dark narrow blaze down the center.

I see some of the same traits in my coum.

Very nice Terry. I love the one in shot 4 and both the center and extreme upper left ones in the group shot.

The plant in that last photo is coum, Terry.
