Hi Barbie,
Can you provide a bit more information? You said you recently moved to the coast but you didn't specify which country/coast ... United States, Europe, Australia. I'm assuming you are in the U.S.A. but if you can give a general idea of the state that would help in giving suggestions for plants that would do well in your area. For instance, those who live in the dry coastal area of California can grow different plants than those of us who live along the moist/humid coast of Florida.
I'm sure we can offer plant suggestions once we know your climate and growing zone.
