Photographs of Greek Flora and Wild Flowers

Various Plants

"Man's brain is, in proportion to his whole bulk, larger and moister than the brain of any other animal. This is the reason of the further fact that man alone, so to speak, among animals perceives and takes pleasure in the odors of flowers and such things."

Aristotle, "On Sense and the Sensible"

This photo gallery contains plants in their natural setting.

Below, you'll find an assortment of flowers/plants, representing the Figwort and Bracken Fern Families. All pictures were taken in or around Horton, Pelion.

I will be updating this gallery soon, as I have lots of photographs, unfortunately, however, they were taken with my old camera and need to be scanned. I will also be replacing some of the existing pictures with better quality images, so please bear with me.


		Verbascum sinuatum Check out the Wavyleaf Mullein, a tall and slender part, which is very common in the Pelion region and adorns the area from April until around July.
		Pteridium aquilinum Enjoy pictures and read something about the Bracken Fern, one of the commonest plants in the vicinity of Horton, Pelion, which has some very interesting uses.
