Crocus pallasii

803_8116 [Crocus pallasii]

 

 This crocus grows in countries extending from the Balkan Peninsula to Iran.

In Greece it flowers during the months of October, November and December mostly on some east Aegean islands

but there are reports that it was found in Macedonia and Thessaly as well.

In Attica, as far as I know, it grows only on a very small area high up on Mt. Hymittos.
