I'm moving to a house on Amelia Island. My yard is sand. Any advise on what plants I should grow? Zone 9.

Thrift is a plant which grows easily near water,you could also check out plants that are native to the Island.Best of luck
Wax myrtle does well by the sea. So does crape myrtle and lavender. They don't mind the sandy conditions which cause water to flow right through. Good luck!
Thank you!
On the Jersey shore we used to grow tomatoes. Hmmmm tasty with a salty twist to the flavor
