Cyclamen round a tree
Heart-flutteringly beautiful. What a delight it is to see flowers growing around a tree. Cyclamen or 'sow bread'. To me they look like butterflies resting on chunky grass stalks, all just taking a rest before launching back into flight.

    So pretty - I never knew that these plants were popular food for pigs, especially in Sicily, hence the name. I saw lots of wild cyclamen on my holiday there just two weeks ago!
