Today the Garden Center had a whole bunch of Cyclamen for sale. All different kinds; they were so pretty. Their petals point upwards like flames.

In Japan, Cyclamen is considered as the holy
flower of love.
Leonardo
da Vinci was very fond of cyclamen flowers. He drew them at the margins of
his manuscripts.
These have a very thin white border around the edges of the petals

Flowers or weeds. I choose flowers. Beautiful cyclamen flowers.
Not only are the flowers pretty but so are the leaves. I've heard that quote before and have always liked it.
Beautiful!
your header looks like the flowers have been insta tooned. they are beautiful.. I can see why they are considered love flowers, they look like living valentines
Once again, a great quote! I do enjoy this flower, but I just don't have much luck in growing it. I need to be more patient with them I guess. Have a great weekend
Beautiful flowers - I love the meme and I am going to borrow it!
Love your thought for the day. Its so very true.

They are so pretty! Even their leaves are interesting.
They sure are pretty.
I am fond of cyclamen too, they have a wide range of colors, especially in the pink and lavender shades. I grow them in pots on my patio and they usually make it through the winter here in California.
I love cyclamens. I think of life as a garden…we need to patiently pull the weeds, nurture the flowers, and enjoy the results.
I LOVE this quote. That's really neat what this flower means in Japan. They're pretty, and I especially like the bright pink ones. : )
