We just bought a new place in the outer sunset, on a slightly windy, pretty sunny, and very sandy patch of land. We would like to plant a hedge, some grasses, succulents, and perhaps palms, going for the australian/almost tropical feel. We would also like to keep our plant choices down to a minimum for simplicity, and get things that can withstand the wind, sand, and minimal water. What do you think of the following plants: flax, pygmy palm, senecio malandrasie, echeveria, japanese bloodgrass, banana plant. Any recommendations for a billowy green ornamental grass, and a good hedge that is fast growing, low maintenance and won't grow over 15 feet?
