Cyclamen

(Cyclamen persicum)

There are twenty different species of this primrose family member. Cyclamen are native to parts of Europe, Western Asia and regions of North Africa. The variety that is probably most familiar is known as “florist’s cyclamen”. These graceful beauties are available in shades ranging from deep red to magenta to various hues of pink and white.
