about the soil in the berms , about 20 yrs ago we did a job in a rised planting areas , the soil that I ordered was supposed to be topsoil ,instead fill was delivered ,it was yellow sub-base material , well at that time I was stuck and decided to go ahead with the planting , the job called for about 60 plants including Ilex,juniperus ,pinus,abies ,cotoneaster ,etc, I think we only lost 2 items the first year and that was it and the area was a commerical job and only recieved rain watering ,the job is still looking good today ,I say most plants will adapt to the soils ,just stay away from clay type soils,don't get all hung -up on soil admendments.
