    Hi there,

    I've recently moved into a new house, which was previously owned by a gardener who loved unusual plants. However, I'm not sure that even he could appreciate this one, so I'm wondering if it is a weed or something very special. It sure gives me the creeps, so unless I can discover that is has some wonderful redeeming qualities, I'm going to dig it out very soon!

    It would be great if someone could help me to identify it.

    Thanks,

    Allison

    Thanks for your reply. I would never have guessed that something as pretty as cyclamen would have such strange seed pods. I will definitely keep it!

    I was afraid it was something like "devil's twine".
