Rimmer,

This is a nice hederifolium.  Libanoticum has broadly scalloped leaves and right now, it's budded up and going to bloom probably 6-8 weeks earlier than normal.  Hederifolium has an incredible range of leaf shapes, patterns and colors, and even I have to look closely after 30 years of growing them all.

the leaves are very distinctive and large and look like the plate for cyclemen libanoticum in the Chris Gray Wilson monograph on the Genus Cyclamen (also on the back cover)

can anyone help in identification. 

Thank you
