The Sea-Garden Gate 
No plants can live and thrive without good healthy 
foliage. Exposure to salt sea winds brings damage to 
foliage of all but a very limited number of kinds. 
We plant these vigorous kinds, then, in most direct 
exposure. They create a windward shelter for others 
less resistant, and these in turn increase the wind- 
break, permitting much wider choice of plants to 
be used inside the sheltering masses. 
Good gardens and borders actually within only a 
few feet of the water’s edge are definitely possible. 
We've designed and built many on Cape Cod with 
marked success.
