Coastal garden - clay soil

Clay soils hold on to water, are heavy to work in wet weather, warm up slowly in spring and bake hard in the summer sun^. They are nutrient rich and can be very fertile for the right plants. Plants that do best are those that don't often need to be sowed, moved or divided and that can be planted in autumn and early winter when the soil is at its most workable.
