The Guarrigue
Definition
- Provençal "garrigo" = dirty, uncultivated
- In Occitan "garric" = kermes oak.
- Prefixes Kar, Gar and Cal refer to places or characteristics related to "stone" or "rock".
- Same origin for "Gard", "karst", "calanque", "hutch", "crau"
- At first glance, the garrigue is not a very welcoming environment: "There is only pebble, it stings, it is all the same …"
- For botanists, the garrigue is a plant formation xerophilic (= adapted to the drought) low on calcareous soil.
- It is a flora composed of different plants (thyme, rosemary, kermes oak, myrtle, maritime pine, etc.) which must adapt to a warm and dry climate in the summer, winter.

Guarrigue or maquis?
Similarities
Characteristics of the Mediterranean climate. Result of the degradation of a forest. Repeated aggression which no longer allows large trees to grow The original forest is gradually transformed into impenetrable bushes. Rarely natural degradation (lightning, insect pests, etc.) More commonly due to humans: goats, crops, habitat, firewood, always preceded by a fire to "clean the ground". Highly biodiverse Fragile environments [/ fusion_text]
