SaltTolerant

Salt-tolerant plants handle some salt spray, sandy soil, wind, or coastal exposure better than sensitive landscape plants.

Beachfront sites need the toughest high-salt plants; inland coastal yards can often use moderate salt-tolerant selections.

Yes. Salt tolerance does not replace establishment watering, especially during hot, windy, or dry weeks after planting.

Match the plant to how much salt it actually faces. Front-line beach beds need high-salt plants, while inland coastal yards can use moderate ones. We can help you match by site.

Fall and winter let roots establish before summer heat and storms, though container plants can go in year round with steady establishment water.

Salt-tolerant groundcovers for Florida include beach sunflower, railroad vine, sunshine mimosa, and perennial peanut. They handle coastal exposure, sandy soil, and heat while filling beds and slopes.
