into life already. Most of my garden cyclamen are flowering already and it is only the beginning of August. I can’t find any of my white ones but only the pink ones in flower. In the conservatory the small tubers are flowering but my huge ancient tuber is still totally dormant. I have potted it on and the soil was quite damp so I am hoping it is ok. As promised in January I measured the tuber and it is roughly 12.5cm at it’s widest and 10.5cm at it’s narrowest and it old and craggy looking. I plant it quite proud of the soil level with a moat around it so it doesn’t get water on the top. I bought some small ones last year they looked like a really dark burgundy colour, but this year they have come out red. Still attractive though.
