Hi, Kostas, and welcome.

Given where you live, you can use some species that those of us further north can't use, unless we give them special winter protection. Examples are olive (Olea europea,) myrtle (Myrtus communis,) and Aleppo pine (Pinus halapensis.)

Talk to others in your area to see what does best there. And enjoy!
