I am slowly getting my coastal garden on the Costa Blanc organised with some excellent help from members of this group. - Joes lists are marvellous!

I am now looking for ideas for some large leaved interesting sculptural type plants ( Not agaves or cactus) for this dry summer area. I am wondering if banana plant would survive here as we had a few nights under 0 degrees C this winter. Shards of ice on our swimming pool one night would you believe!

I look forward to your advice

Thank you all

Pamela
