The perfect how-to guide for gardening on Cape Cod and the islands. Plants for screening, blue hydrangeas, salt tolerant plants, gardening for the seaside and sandy soil—the author deftly disentangles the many idiosyncrasies and potential pitfalls of growing a healthy and beautiful garden, both on the Cape and on the surrounding islands of Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket, a climate in equal measure challenging and rewarding. C. L. Fornari has herself lived and gardened on the Cape for twenty-five years and is the author of many acclaimed gardening books, quite a number of them focusing on the Cape's specific growing conditions. Complete with an index to help you navigate the parade of flowers, fungicides, and footstools, Sand & Soil will help you bring forth beautiful blooms from this legendary landscape.
