Flowers of Spain - 2013

Spain April 14th to 21st 2013


This visit to Spain I organized myself to search for Spring Flowers in the mountains of Andalucia. 


       To see general photographs of the trip please use this link Spain 2013



I have used 'Wild Flowers of the Mediterranean' by M Blamey and C Grey-Wilson as my guide to the order of the photographs and for the Latin names used.

I found it difficult to identify some of the plants, for various reasons, so please be careful if you try to identify a plant from these photos.
