Crete Wild Flower Calendar

As the months on Crete unfold, we are treated to a vast and varied display of flowers. These pages give a feel for the species you might see, whenever you visit. Most were photographed between 2007 and 2009, but these are a good guide for any year, though of course the weather can bring subtle changes between years.

As the months pass, we will be adding photos and short descriptions of the species we find on our outings into the countryside – from the beach to the high mountain. This work needs time and patience and we hope that you will call back occasionally or often to see what we have discovered.

Note:
Each month has a set of image thumbnails. Just click on the thumbnails for a larger version of the photo (a few late additions excepted). You can then see the next image in the series by either rolling the mouse pointer to the right of the image (left of the photo to go back), or alternatively, using the right & left arrow keys.

We do need help with this project and if you have any information to add to these pages, please do get in touch: julia@flowersofcrete.info
