Cyclamen Stock Photography

Cyclamen is Medieval Latin, from earlier Latin cyclamīnos,[6] from Ancient Greek κυκλάμινος, kyklā́mīnos (also kyklāmī́s), probably from κύκλος, kýklos circle,[7] because of the round tuber.[8] In English, the species of the genus are commonly called by the genus name. In many languages, cyclamen species are colloquially called by a name like the English sowbread, because they are said to be eaten by pigs: pain de pourceau in French, pan porcino in Italian, varkensbrood in Dutch, pigs' manjū in Japanese.
