pH Plant Preference Lists
Introduction

The links to lists of plants below take you to the various classes of plants from lime haters to lime lovers.

I have assembled this list over 35 years of interest and watching how plants grow, and am adding to it continually.

If you find a plant which from your experience you think is in the wrong category, or you can add a plant form your own experience, please email me.

The plant lists are in tables, which take a moment or two to download, so please be a little patient.

So far as I know, this is the most comprehensive list available anywhere. I hope it will enable you to select plants that are suitable for your soil if you leave it as it is, or help you to identify what pH would be best for the plants that you want to grow.

I hope you find them useful.

Vegetables, Fruit, Herbs and Food plants
Ornamental plants
Trees
Shrubs
