I would appreciate if anyone (maybe our Turkish members) could identify more of the flowers. Particular 'Wildflower9' I find very pretty.

Thanks for sharing these interesting pictures Poul.
#9 is a Michauxia sp., perhaps campanuloides, and certainly a very striking plant

Enjoyed your pics a lot! Thank you Poul.
The little fern above the red soil picture is Asplenium ceterach.

Poul,
wildflower 2: Agrostemma githago

Poul,

I'd love to know what wildflower 12 is. That certainly has garden merit.

Maren,
My guess is that it is a Salvie, perhaps Salvia viridis.
It is quite common in the Taurus mountains. Also shown in 'crevice3'.

Thank you Gerd for the id. It is a fascinating little fern with its habit of growing in crevices in full sun.
Here some more pics.

Thanks also to Arnold, Ashley and Armin!
