Cyclamen persicum in a Pot
Judy Glattstein (Mon, 16 Jul 2018 08:26:19 PDT)

In 1973 my sister and her family made aliyah. Our parents visited them
that summer. When they came back they brought me a small Cyclamen
persicum corm that was found on the roadside. It has accompanied us on
moves to three houses in two different states, living under grow lights
in a basement, in a spare bedroom window, and now in my greenhouse.
Quite hot at this time of year, heated to 50 degrees Fahrenheit in
winter. Fourty-five years. Remarkable!

The corm is now quite huge. It flowers very well, as you can see from
the attached image from 2014.

Judy in New Jersey where we received a very welcome smidge of rain (.41
inches) yesterday morning. BTW - now I are a weather station:

thanks to a birthday present from my children, their spouses, and
grandchildren
