Cyclamen alpinum

Bit quiet on the plant front at the moment as the "winter" season is only just getting started. I have a few Cyclamen coum out, mainly in the garden (frozen solid today) and this one Cyclamen alpinum out in the greenhouse.

Winter Freeze

Well blogger seems to now have a mind of it's own about where it places text and images, no doubt as a result of some "improvement to the system". I have been intending to start putting up pictures every week but the cold weather here has meant that everything has gone into a state of suspended animation and for the last week we have had snow which is pretty but not particularly illuminationg (" the plants are under there somewhere") so I'm posting some pictures from the week before where we had a cold snap so that you can see the build up of ice crystals on fennel, then on the spent anemone japonica stalks and finally I think on a euphorbia. Enjoy and keep warm!
