Guys I need some suggestions for my new bed. The soil sucks and has to go. It' full of clay and has poor drainage. I'm planning on digging down 15 to 18 inches and then layering it. I was thinking rock first, then good topsoil, then a foot of compost. Any tips, pics, or diagrams are greatly appreciated. I guess I should list what's going in the bed. Various nana', canna's, needle palm, sabal minor, gingers, various flowers, EE's (Col.), yucca's, and a few others. I am mainly catering to the nana's

and palms. Thanx in advance!-Nate Dogg

12 days till spring!!!
