The pine straw does that I've read but when they put new plants in on new house I wonder if they do any soil prep before hand, I doubt it, so the straw must add nutrients.

I'm amazed that they throw sod down on top of that sand and it actually grows.

The roots of everything must reach down into the sand and that's why it's interesting to know the test results to know what types of fertilizer to use.
