Wild Strawberry

Found in open grassy areas. Often found on lawn edges of older homes. Wild strawberries are very sweet and delicious, very small and seldom found.

Birds probably beat me to these tasty morsels !

Tiny ( 1 to 1-1/2 inch) flowers growing wild in the undergrowth. Grow early spring into summer.

Bees & butterflies love these wee blossoms

Barely visible among the undergrowth
Blossom is barely 1 inch diameter
Entire plant is only about 2 to 2-1/2 inches tall

Did not seem to attract bees or butterflies

Cape Cod is covered with flowers. There are dozens upon dozens of wild flowers that have grown in since the glacier melted back 10,000 years ago. As ice melted back, Monomoy, Nantucket and Martha's Vineyard were left as Cape Cod neighbors. As site development progresses, we will include interesting shots from these islands.

Over the years, residents have introduced hundreds of cultivated species into their gardens, window boxes and deck arrangements. Many of these cultivated flowers show up along roads, trails and bogs - almost in a wild state. Year after year they grow, unattended by anyone - always adding that extra touch of beauty to an already exotic, exciting and thoroughly enjoyable environment.
