And what a good Crocus you found - congratulations, Kris.
This was the only one that I didn't find last year on my own trip.

Thank you Thomas ! For us it was the only one we did find ....
Next time we trie to go later and more to the south of the Pelops ...
We have been to Crete this year by the end of november and we see them al in flower overthere. So it looks it was a very late season in Greece this year ?
