Does anyone have a source book that would indicate a source for white
cyclamens? Or has anyone recently bought white cyclamens? From what
source? TIA, Margaret L

Margaret, I have about a dozen white cyclamens. I purchased them (and
about a dozen reds) last fall at one of the local, family owned
nurseries, and while I don't have a source, I might be able to find
out if you'd like me to check. They've done very well, and are still
covered with blooms. I have them in a raised bed and mulched with
pinestraw. I planted them very high, with about half the corm above
ground. Now that it's getting hot, I'm moving them to a raised bed in
the shade. I don't know if they'll make it through the summer here,
but i hope so. I've really become fond of them.

I assume you mean hardy cyclamen? Like C. coum or hederifolium? I have a
plant locator that gives a few west coast sources for these, mostly very
small specialty nurseries. I bought mine at an Arboretum plant sale many
years ago.......whites seem particularly tricky to find. Let me know if
you would like the details.

Let me know if any of the email addresses are invalid and I will send you

The seed was available from Parkseed. I got pink, but white was also
available.
