I'ts like a lucky dip. I import soil all the time. Last year 12 buddleas
of varying shades of mauve grew. This years soil grew a large cucumber
plant (amongst my irises) that is yielding 60 delicious apple cucumbers
per week. I have never succesfully grown cucumbers here before!

Hoping for masses of Siberian iris out of next years soil.
