The soil that suits vines suits a dry garden
Free draining stony ground over limestone is exactly what Mediterranean planting wants, and it is why gardens here can be genuinely low water once they are established. It also means the ground holds very little in summer, so establishment watering has to be taken seriously for the first two years.
The village itself is built of stone, with enclosed courtyards behind the street façades. Those spaces are cool, shaded and often paved, and they garden as containers and climbers rather than as beds.
Away from the village the plots are vineyard and almond, where the questions are usually access, boundary planting and what to do with land between the house and the working part of the parcel.

Most requested here
Is the ground here good for planting?
For Mediterranean species, yes. It drains sharply, which those plants prefer, though it also means little summer moisture is held.
Does it frost inland here?
On clear winter nights it can, more than on the coast. Species choice should allow for it.
Can a village courtyard be replanted without machinery?
It usually has to be, since access runs through the house. Say so in your request, because it affects how the work is priced.
