Shelters or hedges of Acacia latifolia, Atriplex Breweri, Texas cane, can be grown quickly and behind these choice plants can be soonter established. To get even these plants started once can construct a skeleton fence and shingle or thatch it with palm leaves and obtain immediate results.
Lippia makes a very excellent lawn for the sea coast gardens and seems to thrive in the lighter soils.
