I have red clay soil and I don't think anything grows well in it unless you dig most of the clay out and put top soil in it.
mango and apple
Clayey soil retains water and all types of green vegetables,tuber roots and fruit trees can grow in clayey soil.
Chrysanthemums need well drained soil. So clay is not good. Sand or Miracle Grow as long as the Miracle Grow does not retain water.
well i know that they can grow in clay and acidic soil
Different types of soil include sandy, silty, clay, and alkaline. Root vegetables, such as carrots, beets, potatoes, and radishes grow well in sand. Silty, loamy soils are ideal for growing most vegetables and flowers. The plants get nutrition from the rich soil. Corn, squash, pumpkins, and okra do well in clay soil. Alkaline soils are difficult for gardeners to produce crops in, but beets, cabbage, and carrots are crops that do well in alkaline soil.
Clay soil is prevalent many parts of the United States, and it can be a real pain if you happen to decide that you want to plant a flower or vegetable garden. While many trees and shrubs grow well in clay, the roots of the majority of annuals, perennials, and vegetables just aren't strong enough to make their way through. And if spring flower bulbs are your dream, forget it. Bulbs tend to rot over the winter in clay soils. With a bit of background about clay, and a strategy for improving your soil structure, you'll be able to grow flowers and vegetables to your heart's content.
most vegetables, as including corn, grow well in acid soil and acidic soil isn't a problem for them.

Beans grow better in soil because soil has all the moisture and nutrients. If you use sand, it could be to rocky. Clay will also not be good even though it can keep good moisture it does not have the nutrients like soil.
The quality of soil (ie its ability to grow vegetables, flowers etc) is affected by its chemical&mineralogical make up. For example, soil that is rich in potassium, sodium and nitrogen is good for growing vegetables. Some soil is very depleted of minerals and therefore it is difficult to grow much in it. Also, drainage of soil is affected by its mineralogical make up. Soil with a high level of clay minerals will not drain well and will shrink and swell.
Plants need a mixture of sandy soil, loamy soil, and sand to grow well, preferably about 30% of each, because each supplies the plant with what it needs to grow. If there is no loam, the plant cannot receive as much nutrition and minerals from the clay and sand.
yes, well, kind of.... (See related link below)
