I know I should stop guessing here...but what if I put in a bunch of alfalfa pellets?
Wouldn't that help with the texture, drainage and nutrition factors?
Thanks for your experience Juli...that is what I was afraid of...I created two more years of work to "fix" the garden.
Oh well, I guess I will just have to skip the seeds and buy more daylilies since they grow for me in anything I put them in!
