As title, I need suggestions for plants on a sand hill in zone 3b. The hillside is west facing with a lake to the south, I haven’t had the soil tested but I’d eat my hat if there was any clay content. There are sparse trees but it’s mostly wild grass with very shallow roots. I’ve talked to some local nurseries and have already planted a few blueberry bushes and a couple of apple, pear and plum trees. Everything has needed a fair amount of fertilizer and I’m really hoping for some advice/suggestions since I’d prefer not to mix a bunch of additives into the “soil”. I should mention the turtles in the lake like to lay their eggs in the sandy hill and I definitely want them to be able to keep doing that. Sorry if I’ve rambled at all or left out some vital detail.
