Chloris (nymph)


In Greek mythology, Chloris was a nymph or goddess who was associated with spring, flowers and new growth, believed to have dwelt in the Elysian Fields.

Mythology

Chloris was abducted by Zephyrus, the god of the west wind, who transformed her into a deity known as Flora after they were married. Together, they have a son, named Karpos. She was also thought to have been responsible for the transformations of Adonis, Attis, Crocus, Hyacinthus and Narcissus into flowers.
