Cyclamen hederifolium ssp. crassifolium is a subspecies of Cyclamen hederifolium from the Greek Peloponnese that was formally described in 2009 as being different from typical Cyclamen hederifolium in both appearance and chromosome number. Each two-toned, highly patterned, heart-shaped green leaf is also adorned with a central framed silver blotch. As with typical Cyclamen hederifolium, the flowering period extends from late July through November (NC) and the flower color can range from pink to white.
