........ the backdoor. The east wind is blowing, a bit, and it is still on the cold side. I know I am a wimp, so I am not going on the beach this morning.

I think your back door is even closer to the shore than mine! I love seeing your daily "views"!
Thank you, Sian, that is a lovely thing to say.....
We are about 50 yards (in old money) from the beach. The sea can, of course, get closer ...................
My God, Jen - it looks cold! Cold and spectacular. Stay in the warm - I would!!

My back door is probably just over 100 yards from the high water mark - though I do have some protection from the outbuildings. My garden border is only about 50 yards though and my precious escollonia is looking a little black and wan. I'm hoping it recovers! Rosa Rugosa, Hebe and Fuschia doing OK though.
Our escallonia blackened and died during its second winter. I think it was protected through the first one because it was so tiny and close to the ground. We do well with Rosa rugosa, our favoured version is Roserie de l`Haye. Hebes are fine but the seaward aspect becomes naked after a couple of seasons. Hebe salicifolia is the best "doer". Prostrate rosemary works with a modicum of shelter, a south-facing wall, and ballota seems to cope with anything as long as it is not too rainy! Such fun.!
We are rebuilding the garden post-builders .... and we`ll post the progress.
Love walrus
