Why is it good for my garden? Oceanspray does well as a feature plant in a garden standing alone with its fountain-like clusters of flowers or at the back of a border. A host of pollinators like this plant and in the summer you can hear it buzzing with action. This shrub is also enjoyed by tree frogs. Bushtits like to eat bugs that are on the underside of the leaves of the oceanspray.
