Seaside Garden Help please
Hi
Are there any good books / leaflets with suggestions for a seaside garden. Garden is flat facing the sea looking southwest. On the 50 foot contour. Obviously a problem with wind and salt but very mild. No trees within 2 miles. Ground is soil to 3 foot over limestone. I have been planting Oleria Haasti as a windbreak and to catch the salt, it is thriving at 8 foot. Other plants have a chance behind it. Escallonia is slow growing affected by salt I think. Rosa Rugosa does well. I am thinking of fruit trees behind the Oleria. Can anyone suggest hardy varieties. Also what is the chance of Holm Oak or the Maritime Pine? All suggestions welcomw. John |
