I Love Roses...

My Garden of  Roses...I took a shots of my roses in our mini garden just because I love flowers especially roses it really adds beauty in the surroundings but do you know that aside of garden beauty it brings, it also gives a lot of benefit for everyone?.

The name Rose comes from french, Rose perrinial flower shrub or vine of genus rosa in Rosaceae family that contains over 100 species and comes variety of colours.
Rose flower has been used in perfumes for centuries,
Rose water, made from rose oil used in asian and middle eastern cuisine while "Rose Syrup" is an extract from rose petals which french is known for it, this french rose syrup is used to make rose scones and marshmallows in the united states, rose hips are occasionally made into jam, jelly, and marmalade.

It is also used as Rose tea because of its high Vitamin C content.
Rose hip seed oil used in skin products and some make-up products.
Roses are very essential from "Florists" for ornamental purposes commonly used a flower bouquet for an occasion its exquisite beauty brings colors and life  to the occasion.

Roses also used as a simple token of affection and love of a man to a women so it's is very useful in a man courting a woman who wanted to win the heart of the woman...I remember my hubby always gave me a bunch of white roses and he succeeded...maybe because he gave me white roses he told me that is a symbol of pure intentions of love and I believed in him until now.

Giving roses to our love ones are very common but still is a must for it symbolizes our feelings, affections, and love.

See Natures wonders in our Backyard...

Isn't so relaxing looking for the wonders of nature? well for me it is...that is why I can't help myself taking photos of natures wonder in the comfort of our own backyard and this is what I saw a beautiful flower, this flower is a single flower that looks a bouquet of flowers isn't it? actually I didn't know about this flower so I searched about it and found out that this is what they call "Coronitas" (scientific name: Lantana camara L.) here in the Philippines it was called "Kantutay" hmmm..sounds awful lol! anyway I love the colors of it and the flower itself disregard the name...Lol!

Next... if you haven't take time to look at a Guava tree you wouldn't notice it has a beautiful flower...This is actually the flower of a Guava fruit isn't it so beautiful?

English name: Guava
Tagalog name: Bayabas
Scientific name:Psidium guajava L.

Guava fruit has a lot of health benefits,nutritional values and also used in culinary and medicinal purposes,in folk medicine it is known to be a remedy for diarrhea ,dysentery and fever while extract from guava leaves or bark are implicated in therapeutic mechanism against cancer,bacterial infections,inflammation and pain.  

This photo interests me because I don't know why this Santol leaves looks ugly as it is...it's kinda different amongst other some says that there are micro organisms live there the clusters that gives an ugly look of the leaves is actually their home..
Another thing is that I really like the santol fruit especially if it is sweet I actually swallowed some of  the seeds of it but then I found out that the seeds of santol is inedible and can actually caused intestinal perforation if swallowed thank God it didn't happened to me.


It's harvest time! but before that I've just take a shot of it that includes this army of ants whooow...be careful... it hurts when it bites..this ants called "karag" here in our place.
This Guyabano or "Sour sop" is somewhat says "The Fruit that heals" and I personally believed in it...click the link for full details.

These are some of natures wonder in our backyard and a lot more...imagine if you go out in the wild there might be thousands or million or billions of wonders,species you can see.. that's so interesting!

See more interesting photos to come...

Flowers are everywhere...

A very nice afternoon greets me after having afternoon siesta this day as I walked around, I can't help noticed this beautiful flowers in our backyard this well taken care of " Euphorbia flower" that grown so well it's really so relaxing to watch the attractive colors of it I just want to pick some of it but suddenly I saw the thorns  it  was horrible then I remember the post I've made to my other blog " I like euphorbia" it's about Euphorbia flower's characteristics then I decided not the pick it...It's like a beautiful lady " hands off please" or else..( lol !!!)

This is the second flower that interests me if I'm not mistaken this beautiful white flower is called " White Angel" it looks like a Sampaguita flower here in the Philippines the only difference is that Sampaguita is smaller and is known for its fragrance while this White angel is not it's more on ornament but I really like it I actually love it's simplicity...it's like a pure soul maybe that is why they called it "White Angel"..hmmm... what do you think?
                                                   



 I don't really know about this flower but it caught my attention because I love its color a Lavander flower indeed, it just grows in the wild I guess because I've seen this beside the grassy part of the backyard and I've also seen this everywhere...I love it...


I just pick it and just put this beside the white angel for a snap shot... isn't lovely?

This 4th photo is really exciting...It's a plant with blooming flowers the exciting part is that can you see a little butterfly  around? ahh..yes there is...the butterfly adopted the color and texture of the flower that's why you can't notice it easily..it's like a chameleon adopting itself to its environment...what a lovely scene of nature...

And just because I love flowers I can't help myself to share this moments with you as I take these photos passionately I have this wonderful feeling that completes me...so..more photos to come.
