Cyclamen bud

One of my sons gave me a potted Cyclamen and a box of chocolates for Mothers Day today. I thought this bud was really nice.

Hope all you mums have had or are having a lovely day with your loved ones.

Thank you all for helping (is that a rose bud I see?) onto the PP, I really appreciate your support, so glad you liked it as much as I did. http://365project.org/dianeburns/365/2014-05-10
