For this spectacular poolside oasis we used a blend of large foliage tropicals, bromeliads, flowering groundcover, and a selection of natives to add life and texture. Our plan featured a Lignum Vitae, a Brazilian rain tree, dwarf betel nut palms, Australian tree ferns, large philodendrons, and Seaplums. The planters on the dock were filled with cascading beach creeper and Baccharis dioica, one of our favorite plants to withstand the wind and salt exposure of the coast.
