Marilyn: Scree is what you have. Read up on scree at a rock gardener's
website, or in a book. One of my gardens is basically scree, a former
gravel driveway with some dirt added over the years. Many plants do fine
with this type of super drainage. Sedums, columbines, heucheras, even
daylilies. Echinacea and rudbeckia will grow in it, they grow everywhere.
Corydalis loves this environment. Daffodils and summer snowflakes like it.
I grow some 'Fairy' roses in there and they seem to be happy. I can't
think of other gravel lovers at the moment but I bet some of our fellow
SGers can.
