In the RLN Tiligulskiy Park, the late blooming Colchicum ancyrense is in full bloom.
This early flowering is explained by an unusually warm winter, as reported on February 5, 2024, on the park’s Facebook page.
The flower can be found in the steppe areas of the park and is a unique genetic code of the steppe.
«By the way, this first flower is very rare and listed in the Red Book of Ukraine as vulnerable, so it is prohibited by law to pick it. Treasure what you have!» — the message reads.
