Without doubt one of the most challenging places to garden would have to be by the coast. Sandy soils and salt laden winds can create havoc in a conventional garden, that’s why successful coastal gardening is all about getting the right plants and advice. It goes without saying that all good gardens start from the ground and in a coastal environments, it’s even more important.
