I have been reading through tons of threads on this site. I will begin construction of a new IG pool. Although I know the ppm salt content is fairly low, has anyone had any issues with their landscaping surrounding the pool? Plants, shrubs, flowers will get splashed. The question is, can they tolerate the low amount of Salt water on their roots??? Has anyone experienced any plant loss? If so, what type of plants?

Check with the Horticultural Agent at your local Extension Office. They can tell you what is or is not salt tolerant.

No issues with ours after 2 years. Salt is only 3000 ppm. Rain or irrigation will dilute any splashout further.
