Maquis (macchia in Corsican and Italian) is a shrub biome that covers about 20% of Corsica. You can’t walk around the island and don’t meet the maquis. Although most guidebooks mention maquis and its typical scent, more details are rather difficult to find.
Fortunately, Kirsten DeLara wrote a thorough list of plants the maquis consists of and she even included gardening tips for growing those plants in your own garden.
