Absolutely. The real key to the success / failure of a garden is its soil.
Get that right and the garden as a whole will be a success even if
individual elements miss the mark.

Not long ago my soil was little more than a sandpile. Now it is darned near
black and both holds and passes water (and nutrients) like the living
natural sponge that it is.

Soil matters.
