Places to visit / Re: Ancient Corinth
« Last post by Hilary on May 10, 2024, 06:36:28 AM »
We visited the area near the Climbing Wall, Solomos late April this year. The intention was for me to snap wild flowers. Unfortunately, most of the wild flowers had dried up and some of the few I saw I was unable to identify.
So here are the photos
A white horse grazing in an Olive grove.
A black horse and a mule grazing.
A tiny Olive tree in an established Olive grove.
Italian viper's bugloss, Echium italicum, in the middle of a dirt road.
A close up of Echium italicum.
White asphodel, Asphodelus albus, in the shade of an Olive tree.
A view of Acrocorinth from the south.
Swathes of pink/ mauve flowers which I didn't identify.
A member of the Lathyrus family.
