This Wild Cyprus Cyclamen with me for 3 years.
Last year I received seeds from him, sowed - but nothing came up ...

Lovely! We get them here, I had no idea that they were native to Cyprus
In some places there are a lot of them!
But these places must be sought.

Wow! This is very beautiful!! Love to see lots of these white flowers in a field!
Yes, it looks very beautiful!

You should give us a recipe how to cook these flowers!
