that is pretty cool though So far in searching the net, I have found that beets, brocolli, cabbage, brussel sprouts, legumes and turnips like alkaline soil (high ph).

Alkaline-Tolerant Plants There are fewer plants that thrive in alkaline soils than acidic, but among the best bets is arrowwood viburnum (Viburnum dentatum), which is an evergreen shrub that can grow to 10 feet and works well as a hedge. Arrowwood viburnum has dark green leaves that change to yellow, orange or red in the fall and cream-colored flowers in late spring. Small, bluish-black berries dot this shrub in fall. Arrowwood viburnum is hardy in zones 3 to 8, can tolerate very hot or cold weather and likes moist soil. Other alkaline-tolerant plants include boxelder (Acer negundo), a maple tree that grows to 60 feet; locust (Robinia), a fast-growing tree with pink blossoms; and mockorange (Philadelphus), a shrub with fragrant white blooms in spring.
