Crocus pallasii is an Autumn crocus, with wide distribution
from West Asia to the Balkans.
In Greece, it used to grow locally on the Aegean islands of Chios, Samos and Lesvos
but, I hear, it has recently also been found in various spots of mainland Greece.
One of those spots is Mt. Hymittos where the above pictures were taken.
It flowers in rocky habitats at altitudes of 50 to 2000 m.
