  1. Neat to see this growing in the wild. It is a popular house plant here. Posted 9 years ago
  2. are you sure it's Cyclamen persicum? the leaves resemble Cyclamen hederifolium, not C. persicum. the flower also seems to me more like Cyclamen hederifolium. Posted 4 years ago
    1. Oh no, not sure at all, I remember just looking up Cyclamen species online, I have no expertise whatsoever in that area. I'll change it! Posted 4 years ago

''Cyclamen hederifolium'' is a species of flowering plant in the genus ''Cyclamen'', of the family Myrsinaceae. It is the most widespread cyclamen species, the most widely cultivated after the florist's cyclamen, and the most hardy and vigorous in oceanic climates. It is native to woodland, shrubland, and rocky areas in the Mediterranean region from southern France to western Turkey and on Mediterranean islands, and naturalized farther north in Europe and in the Pacific Northwest.
