Last Sunday dawned bright and sunny so we set off for a drive along the old road to Sophiko where I remembered a field full of blue flowers. We found the field but it was sown with corn so the blue flowers were probably seen in the winter and were probably crocuses. I should make a note on the calendar for next winter.
Later we stopped at a pine forest where I hoped to take photos of spring wild flowers. There aren’t all that many places at these pine forests where you can park the car and get into the forest on a path. There was a well-made signpost to encourage us however, unfortunately, the path seemed to lead to a small rubbish dump, rubbish everywhere and not many wild flowers around. I got photos of a solitary grape hyacinth, a purple pea like flower, a white flower and, to save the day, a lovely plant with mauve flowers
