Growing Sea Grape
Sea grape is drought-, heat-, and salt-tolerant, thriving in extreme coastal conditions in a range of soil types. Sea grape is rarely bothered by diseases, though it may suffer some mild ornamental damage from pests, such as sea grape borer, leaf feeding insects and nipple gall. Indoor plants may fall prey to common houseplant pests such as mites and mealy bugs. Fruit drop may be a hassle to clean up.
Sea Grape Uses
Where hardy, sea grape is used as a hedge or street tree. It may also be planted as a windbreak. The fruits are edible raw or cooked, and may be used to make jelly or wine. Sea grape is excellent in a low-maintenance wildlife garden, as it will attract butterflies with its flowers and birds with its fruits. If given shelter from direct salt spray and wind, sea grape can be grown as a moderate-sized shade tree.
