Shrubs

Tweet

We've lived on this part of our farm for 3 1/2 years now, it was started on the edge of a pasture, and have planted trees and made some flower beds. My husband and I both love gardening both flower and veggies. I have a frew shrubs and small trees but with a new yard I hve lots of sun and very little shade and I need ideas on shrubs and small trees that will stand a lot of heat and sun, I live in mid Mo. in zone 5 so it can get hot and dry for days and weeks. I have a small rose garden I keep adding to, I also have lilac and I have some others that have thorns and put out red flowers in spring (I've known it as a fire bush.). But I also have problem with my yard because is had to be dug down and leved when we put our home in, so we have a lot of packed clay around our trailer and I haven't found a lot that will grow. I have a small area that gets shade pertty much all day and I have my Hostas in a bed there. I could also use some help on dealing with the clay since its hard and packed.
