CONT

Ainsi les cyprès tant admirés de Van Gogh en 1888 n'existaient que depuis une génération lors de son arrivée en Provence! Ces cultures maraîchères remplaçaient ... des champs d'oliviers, relégués aux pentes non irrigables. Ceux qui restent de nos jours ont parfois des arbres à plusieurs troncs, poussant en ronds. Ce sont des rejets survivant depuis les gels meurtriers de 1956.
