Coastal Hedge Plants
Hedging and screening plants for the seaside
Coastal hedge plants need to have the combined qualities of being good in the wind, not minding salt and growing in sandy and aften poor soils. The plants on this list variously all do just that. Some prefer warmer areas, so flower, some have good foliage. But they are all good seaside "doers" and are excellent for proving low windbreaks, cover for wildlife and extremely low maintenance privacy hedges (just thing what a seaside gale does to a close boarded fence.... If your location is not as fierce as some, them late a look at our full list of hedge plants as well.
