Red Clay Issues

Planting flowers, trees, shrubs, and lawns can be very difficult if you're trying to work with stubborn and acidic red clay. Red clay usually has a low pH and will require you to add lime. This will give your grass and other plants a better chance of surviving.

Before you begin to work with the red clay, however, we suggest that you contact your local extension to have a soil test done. The test will determine your soil's acidity and give you a better idea of how to improve it.
