COASTAL gardens have a charm blending informality with resilience. But you don’t need to live by the sea to enjoy the same feel.

- DAVID DOMONEY

With the right mix of plants, textures and styling, you can recreate the relaxed mood of the coast.

Structure with a soft touch

Choose plants that offer toughness and texture. Armeria maritima (thrift) is a timeless choice with pink pompom blooms and grassy foliage. It thrives in dry, free-draining soils and looks right at home in gravel or rock gardens.

Crambe maritima (sea kale) is perfect for creating bold foliage contrast. Its ruffled silver-green leaves and frothy spring flowers bring structure and style, and the young leaves are edible too.

For vertical form, try Phormium 'Pink Panther', which has colourful, strappy leaves that add drama.

Upright' is particularly suited to coastal planting.
