Cliff, this left village of Kayakoy is definitely interesting but also a place to feel
very lonely. Good that there are some flowers here and there to cheer up!
Your pictures are great as always.

great stuff, cliff--looks like a wonderful holiday, and some great plants! a couple of lovely white plants in the first couple of pages, and lots of little bright things, too..
no wonder the alpine nursery lists are so full of turkish plants!

Cliff, it's wonderful to revisit this thread in which you have capture the timelessness and beuaty of this wonderful region in Turkey.  It's a country I would love to visit one day as your photos are truly enticing and inspirational  8)

Stunning pink Nerium oleander  bushes, which I remember so fondly from my time in Libya, where they are very widely grown.  Whole plant is horribly poisonous, of course, but then it is easy to leave it be!! It is so pretty with its spiralling buds and scented flowers.... I just love it.  8)
