Carolina Roses (Rosa carolina)Carolina Roses (R. carolina)Strolling around the parks in San Francisco, I can’t help myself taking photos of various flowers that bloom beautifully under the basking sun and breezy weather. I’m really fascinated with nature, period. The lovely scene curated and nurtured by the Earth. Also, as they say, it’s relaxing! I don’t have a green thumb — well, I haven’t tried gardening and doesn’t see myself doing it anytime soon.

But I do have with me an iPhone application that helps me identify what type of plant I see because I’m not an expert. (You can download it too, here’s the link) Currently, I’m in love with Camellias and Carolina Roses. I wanna share the photos with you guys and let me end this post with one of my favorite quotes:

I hope one day you find someone who makes flowers grow in even the saddest parts of you.
