| Hello. I am a beginner gardener, who has been learning the hard way.
My home is .22km from the sea (.15km from the beach)in Central Italy. I have a roof deck and have begun to plant in containers. The problem is the wind brings sands from the beach onto my terrace. I had purchased a Jasmine Official, which became scorched from the sea alt carried in the wind. My lemon tree and my herbs (rosemary, lavender, tarragon, parsley) are all growing well. I am wondering what plants I can grow which will not become scorched by the sea salt.
I would like to plant a few varieties of Roses to climb a lattice fence at the side of the terrace. I am looking for a Climbing or Rambling Rose which is resistant to sea salt scorching. Any suggestions?
If you have any advice on the Rose, I would greatly appreciate it,as well any other suggested plants (Jasmine, Bougainvillea, etc.) for growing near the seaside. Thank You. |
