The Beauty of Cyclamen

 Living in the tropical latitudes, we never get to see the beauteous cyclamen. It was a  treat for the eyes to see them flowering in the Botanical Gardens at Ooty.

Cyclamen is a native of the Mediterranean region. Since Ooty is at a height, these flowers are seen to be blooming there throughout the year.
I thank the team of Today's Flowers where you can see flowers which you may not be able to see in your region.

  7. These are beautiful indeed! We see them during the winter horticultural shows here. I don't know how the nursery owners manage growing them.
