salt will kill them but only temporarily you can plant out again

No its not true they will never grow there again. Dirt is a filter. Watering or rain will wash the salt thru the dirt and it will be fine for planting. Some of mine aren't growing as well as others. Nobody threw anything on them though. They might not like as much water as the other plants. They might be in too much sunlight. They might have something nibbling at their roots. Salt isn't the only reason plants revolt against us.

You can get things to grow after a salting. Just give it time and let nature take its course. Add to the soil. Could you have over fertilized? That would slow them down also.

Few flowers are tolerant to salt - but most plants are not.
That's the reason why salty sea water can't be used for irrigation.
