Bermuda buttercup and the hills of Akrotiri

 

Oxalis pes-caprae (the name pes caprae means goat's hoof and refers to the shape of the leaves) is originally from South Africa even though it is commonly called Bermuda buttercup. It was introduced only about 200 years ago in Crete and in this relatively short time it has managed to become the most widely ditributed of all the weeds and is found in huge populations in fields, olive groves and along road sides.
