Dry-garden plants for the coastal strip
A small walk-in yard a few blocks off the Venice boardwalk, stocked for gardens that get salt wind and almost no summer water. Lavender, thyme, germander, rockrose and myrtle in one- and five-gallon, with olive, bay and oleander for courtyard corners. Everything on the benches is picked to survive sandy soil and a forgetful hose.
