Coastal Planting for Hilton Head Island
Salt spray, wind, and sandy soil can be hard on many plants. Prestige Landscaping helps homeowners across Hilton Head Island — in Sea Pines, Wexford, Long Cove Club, Port Royal Plantation, and Hilton Head Plantation, and beyond — build landscapes that thrive by the coast.
🌴 Choosing the Right Plants
Palms, native grasses, and coastal shrubs handle salt and wind far better than many ornamental plants.
🪨 Improving Sandy Soil
Adding organic material helps sandy soil hold water and nutrients so plants root well.
🌬️ Planning for Wind
Grouping plants and using sturdy windbreak plantings protects more delicate areas of the yard.
💧 Watering Wisely
Coastal plants need deep, well-timed watering rather than frequent light sprinkles.
