Nurseries in and around Athens

Does anyone have the address of Chrysanthi Paragiou's nursery in Penteli, or any others on the north-east side of Athens.

You might like to ring Chrysanthi first before you go. When I went a week or so ago the nursery was largely closed because of the cold and wet. It's located in a mountain valley which is cool and damp in the summer but a cold trap in the winter.
You could also try the nursery at the Kaisariani Botanic Garden - open daily till 1 p.m. I believe.

Thanks Fleur. Unfortunately I didn't make it to Athens because of the horrendous weather. Next time!
