Beach Tea
Croton punctatus
Beach Tea is a small, low-growing shrub native to Florida’s coastal dunes. Naturally drought-, salt-, and wind-tolerant, it thrives in dry, sunny gardens with well-drained sandy soil. This resilient plant is ideal for mass plantings, borders, or as a specimen plant, adding soft texture and silvery-green foliage. Its flowers attract pollinators, making it both a beautiful and ecologically valuable choice.
