The Arboretum du Puy Chabrol (38 hectares) is an ancient arboretum located near the community of Barsanges, northwest of Meymac, Corrèze, Limousin, France. It contains approximately 400 exotic species.
History
The arboretum was created between World War I and World War II by Marius Vazeilles (1881-1973), a naturalist and forestry expert.[1] In 1919, he left his job in the Water and Forests Administration to set up a nursery, then he became an expert in forest resources in Meymac.[2]
Marius Vazeilles developed a planting programme at Puy Chabrol of nearly 400 new forest species from five continents, unknown in the region, especially conifers, and planted 18 hectares of arboretum.[2]
Collections
The arboretum is a mix of native natural species and rare species. It is home to many varieties of trees and shrubs and herbaceous plants in the undergrowth. It has about 400 exotic species, mainly conifers.
