Flower From Biltmore
(This picture can be enlarged by clicking on it.)
Betsy and I celebrated Valentine Day by going back to the Conservatory at Biltmore House in Asheville, North Carolina. I don't know what flower this is, but I loved the color and took this picture.
This looks like cyclamen George and it is a good gift to give when someone retires or is moving away or leaving for another job or something. It says goodbye, fare well, auf viderzehn. lol
Yes it is a Cyclamen as others have said. A nice house plant and there is a Hardy Cyclamen which is smaller but just as showy with beautiful varied leaves. I sent some corms to a lady in Tennessee and they are blooming fine outside. MB
I'm a happily married retiree living on the Cumberland Plateau of Tennessee. I taught for 31 years and worked as a systems analyst for 9 years before retiring.

Thanks for the pop of beautiful color this morning.
beautiful and this shade of pink was my mothers favorite color, she had a lot of blouses and dresses in this color
Whatever is the name of that flower, it is still gorgeous.!!! I'll go ask my mom maybe she knows. She adore flowers.
I don't know what it is, either. But it is beautiful and I love the color.
This is beautiful!
It's a gorgeous cyclamen, George. :)
You old smoothy George, beautiful snap.
It looks very familiar but don't know the name. Great shot!
this looks beautiful..looks like a croton hybrid
So rather than a bouquet, you gave your sweetheart a whole house full of flowers!
Pretty In Pink it is!
I like what Lynda just commented. :)
Are the cyclamens?
We are feeling the shock again as the earthquake hit right in the middle of the city and during the day.
Shall keep you posted.

A beautiful flower with these stunning shades of pink, this plant has my mother at home, but even though I try not remember her name.
Saludos.
Sir, it's beautiful indeed and seems to cyclamen.
Hugs.
Beautiful cyclamen, George! That pink just vibrates, doesn't it?
