how about a olive or fig tree? They do well in poor soil and, as best I can tell, lots of sun light.

There is a space in my yard right off the patio that might be good for a small tree, but I'm not sure what to plant there. The area is about an 8' x
8' square bordered on the front side by the patio (exposed aggregate concrete); on the back with a 6' wood privacy fence; and on side a PVC vinyl storage shed. (There is nothing bordering the other side of the square.) The area gets full sun all day and has clay soil which would be time-consuming and expensive to improve significantly. Would any small tree grow in these conditions? Any ideas welcome.Rhonda Richmond, VA USDA Zone 7
