The dahlias are here!

I think these look like chinese lanterns. I would love a garland of them

this one reminds me of coral

So, I think all SFers will agree that this Indian summer has been a doozy. Its a good thing I spent most of the Summer back east because that may be the most sun I get all year. The one great thing about this past wet year is the fact that the gardens are blooming. Each morning I run through Golden Gate park I'm rewarded for my efforts by being entranced with the beautiful rose garden. (And then I start reading the signs and get jealous because I think naming types of roses is up there with naming nail polish.) Also, the dahlias east of the conservatory of flowers are outta this world. Here's a little treat.
