Default ideas for plants to leave in garden when house is to be let

My advice probly was not that good and It might be to late in the year
plant flax in England. I am myself am still experminting with the flax
my self to see how it will grow. Best. I am now growing it in coke
{which is chunks of fully burnt wood} and a sandy and heavly human
dunged soil poorly drained soil. Human dung is probly acidic. The coke
is probly alkine and slowly turns turns into ly. I figure the coke is
good for some plants that like alkine soil. a Because it slowly eats up
decaying matter and small decomposing peables or rocks. As seem to help
to keep clay and soil from cracking when it dries out. Many say to
plant the flax in loom. I starded with just sand and ash and it did
poorly. I add human dung. People in urban areas may not be able to use
it. It is proply the best fertilezer but it need to be broken down
first by dung betles and sun light and causes order. Plant are growing
better and flowering but are not obtaining the hight I want. I was
thinking about trying it in your type of soil with dung. I have clay
soil from decomposing rocks.
