She is noted for research in aquatic botany, especially the Norfolk Broads and the Danube Delta as well as her creation of devotional landscapes. BiographyPallis was born in Bombay,[1] the daughter of the Greek poet and language reformer Alexandros Pallis. She moved to England when she was 12[1] and was brought up in Liverpool. Her younger brother was Marco Pallis, an author and mountaineer who wrote about Tibet. From 1904 to 1907 she studied botany at Liverpool University and attended Newnham College, Cambridge from 1910 to 1912.[1] Pallis rented and later owned Long Gores farm, marshland property in Hickling, Norfolk.[2] Pallis studied the plav, floating reed systems of the Danube Delta; writing a paper for the journal of the Linnaean Society in 1916.[3] Following her father's death in 1935, Pallis travelled the eastern Mediterranean with her partner Phyllis Clark. She purchased the Long Gores property in 1935, planted specimens that she had acquired during her travel, and constructed a studio and garage. Pallis created in Long Gores a devotional symbolic Greek landscape, featuring the Double Headed Eagle Pool, a pool with an island shaped in the form of a crowned, double-headed Byzantine eagle featuring the Papal Cross, the cross of the patriarch of Constantinople and her own Greek initials.[3] She continued to write on Greek history and created pamphlets in the late 1950s and early 1960s concerning what she referred to as "philosophical biology".[3] Pallis died in Norwich, aged 81. She is buried with her companion Clark near the Norfolk Broads on the central island of the Double Headed Eagle Pool.[3] The tree Fraxinus pallisiae is named for her.[1] Works
