No Rick, it's all 100% pure clay as far as we went down; as you can see from the clumps in the last pics Smiling Also no 'high water table' since we live on a hill haha.

What I meant by 'we put it in the beds higher up' is we couldn't go anywhere with the soil that had to be dug out, so we 'stored' in there thinking we'd get rid of it later. 'Till this day I haven't bothered to clear it (nor have the budget) since I won't be planting them this year either. The top ones I did 'cause I couldn't resist when they were finished. The Pennisetum looks good although I think a few died because of the poor drainage; others have begun sprouting again last week.
