Happy Valentine's Day to Everyone!

By

I believe that Valentine's Day is for everyone to celebrate love in their life, not just for romantic relationships. While we're showing affections to our loved ones, we should celebrate our love to Mother Nature. On this day, nobody is alone, Mother Nature is always with you, and always loves you and provide you an abundance and beauty!


The following is my present for you and let's enjoy these beautiful flowers!

Gardening is one of the best ways to relax your mind and enjoy your life more.

I became an enthusiastic gardener a few years ago and fell in love with plants.   Gardening in my own yard   and   visiting botanical gardens   have brought me so much beauty and joy, keep me curious about new things, inspire me with new ideas about my work and life, and give me pleasant surprises from time to time. I just can't stop talking about plants and gardens even on   my blog about jobs and career . Because I believe that gardening is one of greatest things that can enrich our life, balance our work and life, make us feel really relaxed, connect us with other people and with Mother nature. Watch the Birds Singing on the Tree Original Video without Added Music As of today, I have cumulated hundreds of outdoor and indoor plants.

Spring is right around the corner, it is the time to visit botanical gardens to find the new growth among the wilderness, and search for the beauty of Mother Nature in your local botanical gardens. Since I found my new passion in gardening and became a plant lover and an enthusiastic volunteer advocator for botanical gardens a few years ago, I have built a small garden in my own yard, filled up my living room, bathroom and the top of my desk with   succulents that easy to care   and other indoor plants I adore. Now you may have already sensed my ambition to bring a garden online to our blog. I believe that engineers and other professionals who spend so much time focusing on our careers need to take a break from time to time and immerse ourselves in nature.     Short Version with Selected Photos I have been visiting different botanical gardens across California with my husband and recording the fun journeys. Last weekend, we went to  the   Regional Parks Bot...
