    Anyone already with a list of reference means,
    please add your contribution!!
    trying to ID wild plants in Crete is no easy
    job for a newcomer like me.
    Particularly interested in wildflowers, but other plants as well...
    many thanks in advance

    I did a search and came up with a few books that may help. There are several titles at this link http://www.support.net/medit-plants/inprint/booksRMB.html

    One at the bottom of the list ~ "Wildflowers of Crete" by George Sfikas ~ looks like it could be just what your looking for. http://www.support.net/medit-plants/inprint/wocgs.html

    I'm not sure if you can purchase them through this site - It's a start anyway ... and can give you some titles to look for. Also check out the Mediterranean Garden Society http://www.support.net/medit-plants/groups/mgs.html
    It may have some additional sources for you.
