Is this a Cyclamen?

Plant has appeared by my heap of shreddings. Biggest leaf is nearly two inches across. Mild climate, shady spot with limited sun. Looks to me like a rogue houseplant.

Is this a Cyclamen?

It could be!

Jostuki · 07/12/2024 19:21

I think it is.

It is. The seeds get distributed by ants and pop up in odd places.

PigletJohn · 07/12/2024 19:27

Yes, I do get ants round there.

Yes. Cyclamen hederifolium is what it looks like, a hardy cyclamen, rather than Cyclamen persicum which is the indoor one.

Ooh, lovely. That would make me so happy if it chose to live in my shreddings.
