Hi,

The Cape will be a little warmer than surrounding hardiness zones, and
will have weather variations that are different than inland plantings.

The ocean keeps the coast cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter.
Coastal areas also tend be breezier places as well.

Marsh gas stills smells like "home" to me. (smile)

Regards,
Tom
