In Greek mythology, Chloris (/ˈklɔːrɪs/; Ancient Greek: Χλωρίς, romanized: Khlōrís, from χλωρός chlōrós, meaning "greenish-yellow", "pale green", "pale", "pallid", or "fresh") was a minor nymph who was associated with spring, flowers and new growth, believed to have dwelt in the Elysian Fields.
Chloris is the equivalent of the Roman goddess Flora, a deity presiding over fertility and vegetation.

Flora (Latin: Flōra) is a Roman goddess of flowers and spring. She was one of the twelve deities of traditional Roman religion who had their own flamen, the Floralis, one of the flamines minores. Her association with spring gave her particular importance at the coming of springtime, as did her role as goddess of youth. She is one of several fertility goddesses and a relatively minor figure in Roman mythology. Her Greek counterpart is Chloris.
