My suggestion still goes. Your soil is poor, so even if you do all that investigating bit, your core problem remains. If you can put something different in its place in your new soil so much the better. Look around and see what your neighbours are doing. It looks like the area is desperate for colour. Either flowering shrubs or flowering shrubs with a colourful plants running through.
