Q.Plants for Windy, Salty Climates

I live in Galveston, TX and the wind out here is crazy! Are there any flowers or shrubs (other than hibiscus) that I can plant? How about a lemon or lime tree?

This article has some good suggestions for a windy garden:

I am not sure how a citrus tree would do. Winds can be very drying and citrus plants need their moisture to grow well.
