Native plants for a Cape Cod garden

I could not have picked a better time to embark on this blogging adventure.  It’s Thanksgiving and I have a lot to give thanks for, not in the least the fact that I live in a wonderful little corner of Cape Cod.  Why a blog? What’s so special about my yard that I feel the need to put it in the binary world?  My little plot of land is dominated by white oak, scrub pine, and moss year-round.  In the spring and summer they are joined by well over a hundred native plants and flowers.  There is fauna as well, especially birds. Life in the garden is diverse and different every day and I hope to document this with words and pictures.  Wildness begins at home, on a small scale.   It may seem foolish or foolhardy to maintain this little sanctuary, while so much nature is lost every minute of every day.  I am not expecting to motivate anyone or to teach anything.  At the end of the day, this is for me, and for the creatures I have the pleasure living with.
