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: https://wunderground.com/weather/us/… thanks to a birthday present from my children, their spouses, and grandchildren -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
