This field guide catalogues the rich and varied flora of Greece's largest island. Featuring more than 1,500 colour photographs, it provides clear descriptions of each species, including diagnostics, distribution, habitat, altitude range, flowering period and synonymy. Crete's flora is shaped by influences from southern Europe, North Africa and the eastern Mediterranean, and includes many unusual and endemic species. Additional text highlights sites of special scientific and historic significance, climate, geology and practical travel information. With minimal scientific language, this book is accessible to plant-lovers of all backgrounds. Concise species accounts are complemented by an overview of the island's major habitats, making this most comprehensive and up-to-date field guide to Cretan wild flowers an essential companion for both amateurs and professionals.
