Crocus pallasii could be considered an oriental species since it grows on areas of the Balkan Peninsula, the Aegean islands of Lesbos and Chios, Israel, and even further to West Iran. Relatively recent it was also found on Mt. Hymittos where this picture was taken.
It grows from October to December on stony or rocky slopes and bears flowers in various shades of lilac.
