I was thinking of Lavenders, Sedum, Rosemary, Hebe, Elephants ear, Euphorbia and Tyme.

    If elephants ear is bergenia I don't think it will look it's best in a dry rock garden.

    Dianthus should be OK

    I did see a small rose growing in sand dunes in devon, but no idea what its called. Sea holly would grow there too image
  • Fascicularia bicolor?. Mediterranean stuff - small euphorbias, eucomis.  However, here we have to take account of the winters, so I'd stick with the tough ones. Penstemon pinifolius, armeria, campanula 'Birch Hybrid', sempervivums, geranium cantabrigiense.  HC
