We have just returned from Jersey and somebody there was telling us

No, good loamy soil. This isn't on the south coast of Jersey where it can
be
sandy but inland in the north. Everything else flourishes.

Same here. Some plants OK, others just 'fell over'. No idea what caused it.
This soil (unlike my other post today) is good (long story).
