I am always on the lookout for flowering plants suitable for coastal gardening. Here is one I see a lot along the beach and I bought some recently for my balcony.
The Seaside Daisy (Erigeron) is a hardy perennial groundcover, that flowers almost all year. It likes the sun and grows in most soils. Great for exposed positions, including coastal planting and hanging baskets. Fabulous in cottage gardens too.
The seaside daisy has pink and white blooms
Lovely when the fall over the edge
As borders
And these share the garden bed with succulents
I also found these along the coast, which look a bit formal. I love the way they fall and their shadows. I have not seen these in the garden centres yet, so I don’t what they are (maybe you do?).
Love the shadows
Love the way the fall…
Have a nice week.

I love the seaside daisy for ground cover. They are really beautiful.And oh, I love the shadow in the 5th image.
Happy Valentines Day
I'm not sure what those are...they are really pretty! I love daisy blooms and those are pretty with the succulents.
That's a gorgeous garden.
A lovely selection of photos, thanks so much for sharing them with Today's Flowers.
The name of the plant you are uncertain about is Ficina nodosa, commonly called knobby clubrush. You can buy it at the St Kilda Indigenous Nursery (skinc) on Williamstown Road, next door to the Port Melbourne Football Club. I think you would enjoy the variety of plants you can find there. I also enjoy the way they fall
Oh...amazing shadows along with a very interesting plant!
