''Cyclamen cyprium'' (Cyprus cyclamen) is a perennial growing from a tuber, native to woodland at elevation in the mountains of Cyprus. It is the national flower.〔 (Κυκλάμινο το κυπριακό )〕 ''Cyclamen persicum'' and ''Cyclamen graecum'' are also found on Cyprus, but are not endemic. ==Description== Leaves are heart-shaped with coarsely toothed edges, green variegated with blotches of silver above and purple beneath. Flowers bloom in autumn to winter, and have 5 upswept petals, white to pale pink with a magenta blotch near the nose. The bases of the petals curve outwards into auricles. After pollination, flower stems curl, and seeds are borne in round pods, opening by 5 flaps when mature. ''Cyclamen'' ×''wellensiekii'' Iets. is a hybrid obtained in 1969 in the Netherlands between this species and ''Cyclamen libanoticum'' – the other species of sub-genus Corticata. This fertile hybrid has pink flowers from Novembre till March. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Cyclamen cyprium」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
