Plants from Delphi, Greece
« on: February 21, 2010, 10:09:48 PM »
We picked up a sign of spring from a trip in Greece last week. We had a hike from Delphi to the snowtops with beautiful flowers along the way.

Could you please help me to identify these plants:
1 - looks to me like a cross between a kale and Verbascum, I don't even know the genus
2 - Euphorbia?
3 - Bellevallia?
4 - Barlia longibracteata?
5 - Barlia robertiana?
6 - another Barlia?

I'm sorry that not all pictures are perfectly sharp.

And just because they're beautiful:
- Crocus chrysanthus
- Colchicum triphyllum
