Default Re: Clay soil trees?

Is it just palms you want to know about for moist clay soils?

If so, most of them, however your cold winters and dry hot summers might knock some of them around so go for hardy tough ones. Sabal, palmetto, bismak and avoid the cocos or ( Syagrus romanzoffianum) like the plague. Choose slower grower shorter ones preferably without barbs or thorns etc.

They are high maintenance with their berries and leaves though, keep that in mind.
