Salt and Wind Tolerance of Landscape Plants for Hawaii
Proper placement of trees will help prevent damage to plants that are less tolerant of the elements.
Salt deposition damage can be found in the form of burning on the margins or tips of leaves. The damage can also cause wilting and dehydration. Certain plants may be tolerant to salt exposure on leaves while others are tolerant to exposure on roots. The authors created two categories of plants based on the tolerance to salt deposition and wind. The list included within the publication provides information for numerous groundcovers, palms, shrubs, trees, vines, and turf.
