Lightening clay soil for lavender: How?
I have a narrow (15" wide and 8 foot long) bed immediately alongside the front of a new conservatory, edged by paver path.
I want to put lavender in it. The soil level is fairly low so I can add to it: I don't think the bed's ever been used by the prev. owner. The soil seems OK- it isn't builder's rubble! But it seems a bit on the heavy side as is a lot in the rest of the garden. Do I dig out a foot, mix it with- what?- and return it? Sand? Grit? Compost? I have been given 12 small lavendar plants so though I understand the 'plant something else' concept, I want to exhaust the lavender possibilities first! |
