Hi Doss, Welcome to Gardening in Shade!

Your bio says you garden in S.F. and you say your soil is clay... I lived there over 35 years ago and had just started gardening then. I remember the soil I had as very sandy. Where in the city are you? I lived in the Haight and then the outer mission...long time ago, but I remember that city with great fondness; fantastic city, I think my fav. here in the US.

Since Clarence is way south of me, I listed plants I'm really not that familiar with for him; very interesting about the Ficus. I'd love to be able to grow that, but it just isn't going to survive my winters outside.

Thanks for your input on this thread...dunno what happened to Clarence!
