Sunday wasn't anything special for the end of July. Some sunny periods interspersed with dark clouds it was cool and blustery all day.
In a corner of the home greenhouse are the cyclamens grown from seed last year. They weren’t expected to do much this year after flowering in their first year.
They’re in a plant pot saucer by the greenhouse door and surrounded by onions recently lifted and drying off in the greenhouse. To be honest they haven’t been totally neglected and I have kept them watered by adding water to the saucer on a regular basis. But they are putting on a good show.
Last year the plants were in flower in December as the picture below taken on 02 December shows.

Wow! lovely cyclamens.
ReplyDeleteAre those the indoor type or the outdoor ones? They are lovely, especially the pink with the white edge. I have never tried growing them from seed, although mine spread themselves about (outdoor type) and I have only had the pink ones grow.

ReplyDeleteYes they are the indoor types. They were fairly slow growing from seed. We too have the outdoor pink and white types which like to spread everywhere
