Will these grow in this compost?

I have just bought the plants set out below and would like to plant them in the two borders that run down my garden that is roughly pointing North.  That means that the West side of the garden gets the morning sun and the East side of the garden gets the evening sun.

The soil is clay and some time ago I cleared these borders, covered them with a material supposed to stop weed growth and six inches of gravel.  I hope to be able to clear the gravel away from where I want to plant, slit the weed suppressant, dig some of the clay out and replace it with compost.

There is one problem and that is the compost that I have is marked, “Not suitable for lime hating ericaceous plants such as Rhododendrons, Camellias and Azaleas.  Any suggestions would be most gratefully welcomed to an untutored horticulturist.  

 Lavandula Angustifolia.

Echinacer Purpurea.

Geranium× Riversleaianum.

Geranium Red Admiral.

Salvia Scabra.

Salvia Curviflora.

Salvia x Jamensis.

Salvis Mystic Sphires.
