I was under the impression that organic matter was somehow a nemesis, since you stated you only wanted non-organic amendments to your clay (non-organic) soil. You gave no indication that were talking about the soil layer
below the rose root zone. If this was supposed to be self explanatory, or you clarified somewhere else that I missed, than I am really stupid, really sorry and really embarrassed.
It all makes sense, now. Thank you for the clarification.
I've got to go to work now, and it's time to shut up anyway.
