Amending heavy clay with compost and landscape soil doesn't instantly create good soil. The large organic particles haven't broken down into humus—the fine, decomposed matter that binds with clay to form productive soil. For the first year or two, plants struggle.
Don't give up. Till the garden a few times this winter when soil is dry to break down particles and mix them thoroughly. Next season should show marked improvement.
