Small plots with nothing between them and the sea
Gardens here are generally modest in size and short on natural shelter, which concentrates every decision. A single well placed screen changes the usability of the whole plot, and the species that form it have to take salt without complaint.
Soil is thin over rock in most of the area, so beds are frequently built up rather than dug, and imported soil is a normal line on a quote.
Because the plots are small, the balance tips towards containers, defined surfaces and a few strong plants rather than beds full of variety. It is also why lighting matters here, since the garden is used mostly in the evening.
What gardens here usually need
- Salt and wind tolerant screening
- Built beds and imported soil over shallow rock
- Container planting with automatic irrigation
- Compact planting suited to a small plot
- Evening lighting for terraces
- Pool surrounds that cope with spray and traffic
- Marine grade fittings throughout
- Maintenance for part year occupancy
Most requested here
Which screening plants cope with salt here?
Pittosporum, myoporum, tamarisk and juniper are the usual choices. Fast soft growers tend to burn on the seaward face.
Is there soil to plant into?
Often very little. Importing soil or building raised beds is normal on these plots.
Can a small garden still have a design?
It benefits more than a large one does, because there is no room for a decision that does not work.
