The
territory of Pula understands splendid woods where faunal
species lives more and more rare. This natural environment has
inserted called Gutturu Mannu in best green lung from South
Sardinia that for his characteristic of "isolation"
it present peculiarity not encountered in other natural
environments. The temperatures in the slant are inclusive
always between 15 and 17 °C and only they in the hotter
summers reach the 20 °C, the proximity of the sea besides
causes an elevated degree of salinity of the air and the
vegetation one due adjust for survive in a habitat so
particular. It is not rare therefore find in all territory
typical vegetations like the fennel of sea and the thorny
broom, while it is by now difficulty meet the colonies of
lavender that once was accompanied to the dwarf palm by now
extinct. Beyond the coast, overcoming the dunes of sand
deductions from the couch-grass of beaches, in the more inside
territories a more variegated vegetation grows gradually that
it composes the splendid bouquet that is the Mediterranean
habitat. |

From
Teulada to Capoterra we can see the damps zones that form
numerous lagoons and any foreshortenings of swamps. Chia for
example it contains a lagoon that origins a very suggestive
landscape. Here they flourish rushes and reed and floating
plants beyond other species from Africa that is been
perfectly adjust to the climate. In these damps zones is not
rare meet bird like the flamingo and other assiduous
frequenters that here find food and a place where to stay
before take back the migration. In the feet of the slopes
there are woods of pines or eucalyptus that however are not
aboriginal species but has introduced from the man with the
goal of the economic exploitation. In the woods of pine and
eucalyptus it is possible spend the day in the middle of the
green, using places equipped for the picnic or sojourn in the
agricultural tourism houses that often has risen in the heart
of the vegetationancient from restructured ancient houses of
mountain or farms by now not used.

Aboriginal
species are instead the "cisto", the "plant of
lentil" and the asparagus that they flourish to the feet
of the mountains. The wood instead dominates in the mountains
that in much cases don't overcome the 1000 m of altitude. One
of most important it is "Monti Santu" (Saint
Mountain) that for the wealth of fauna in past it was private
reserve of shoot for the sovereigns from Sardinia. Here the
vegetation has characterized from the holm-oak, where you can
find any examples secular of this tree. Where the woods of
holm-oak don't prevail grow the hawthorn, the oak from cork
and the juniper. Talking about the courses of water, they are
very rare, those few that they are torrential kind and have
scarce course because small precipitations that are verified
in the territory of Pula during all year. Despite the shortage
of the waters, any species of flowers succeed during
short periods to color the shore of the small courses of
water. |
