Salt marsh restoration.  Not a good choice for most landscape uses.

Fruits are showy from mid-distance until spring. Salt tolerance is unknown but given known locations for the plant, we assume it is likely to be low. Specimen or hedge plant.

Weedy. Casual wildflower garden, butterfly garden or meadow. Likely to be considered a weed by many.

This is nearly endemic to Florida (there are a few documented occurrences in southeastern Georgia). Wildflower garden, groundcover.

This species is almost always coastal occupying only a strip along the coastline and not entire counties. Wildflower garden or tall-growing groundcover. Forms mounds that are typically wider than tall. Cut back to ground after flowering.

This tree has a thick trunk and both the trunk and branches can twist into interesting shapes. The bark is red to bronze and peels. It's also called the tourist tree, who also may be reddish and peeling. Plant as a specimen tree to show off its bronze-colored peeling bark. Also makes a good shade tree.
