I’m in Zone 5. Flower garden is in full sun. The soil was brought in in two distinct batches to make the flower bed. It is all quite clayey, one half worse than the other. It’s awful stuff! Tends to be wet in winter and spring, and turn to concrete in summer. I’ve been adding as much compost as I can – it just seems to disappear. My problem is with perennial flower stems not standing up. They fall over from the base. The stem itself seems normal. The base isn’t chewed or broken, it just falls over. Is there something lacking in the soil?
