Can anyone help me, weeding the garden today found a small patch of these (photograph below) under a large area of Iris's.   What plant do they grow into.   Jan.

god, they're wierd, triffids ?  ;D

That's a cyclamen  ;)  But you will have to wait to see which kind  :D

Beat me to it Flowerlady, but then you should know eh?  ;)

Thanks - will have to move them I would never see them grow under all the iris's, in the corner of my garden.   They really do look like nothing I have ever seen before.    Do I just move them on to the top of the earth as they are now or do I plant them into the soil - Just wondered.  Thanks again.       Jan    :-[

Those are the seed heads. The stem coils down, and eventually releases sticky, sweet-tasting seeds, which are carried away by ants. They ripen about a year after the plant flowers.
