Tamarix gallica, or French Tamarisk is a deciduous, herbaceous, twiggy shrub or small tree about 5 m high, indigenous to Saudi Arabia and the Sinai Peninsula, and very common around the Mediterranean region.
It was first described for botanical classification by the taxonomist Carolus Linnaeus in 1753, but had already been in cultivation since 1596.
It has fragile, woody branchlets that drop off in autumn along with the small, scale-like leaves that cover them. The leaf-shape is an adaption over time to exceedingly dry conditions.
The pink flowers are tiny, hermaphroditic, and are borne on narrow, feather-like spikes. They frequently bloom earlier than the leaves, first in May, and sometimes a second time in August.
