Wild Flowers.

We saw these flowers on our walk today. They were similar to cyclamen flowers but white. Does anyone know what they are ?

Re: Wild Flowers.

You do get white cyclamen, but not with those leaves. Sorry, not much help!

Alan, I think the flower you photographed might be the Hairy Violet or Sweet Violet, it flowers between March and May.
