It was a beautiful day on Wednesday so we decided to visit Niagara Falls,( Canada side) for the first time during winter. The mists from the falls transform the parks surrounding the falls into wonderland of ice and snow. All the trees around the falls were covered in ice...Mother nature's creation during the coldest month of winter! I'll be posting more pictures soon. We had a great day and it was an amazing exprience!

Sorry if I made you feel very cold ..BRRRR while looking at my stream. :)) Enjoy!

Thank you for visiting and for your kind comments..always greatly appreciated. Happy Friday!!

Camellia, the camellias, is a genus of flowering plants in the family Theaceae. They are native to eastern and southern Asia, from the Himalaya east to Korea and Indonesia. There are 100–250 described species, with some controversy over the exact number. The genus was named by Linnaeus after the Jesuit botanist Georg Joseph Kamel from Brno, who worked on the Philippines. This genus is famous throughout East Asia; camellias are known as cháhuā (茶花) in Chinese, as tsubaki (椿) in Japanese, as hoa trà or hoa chè in Vietnamese and as dongbaek-kkot (동백꽃) in Korean.

The most famous member – though often not recognized as a camellia – is certainly the tea plant (C. sinensis). Among the ornamental species, the Japanese Camellia (C. japonica) (which despite its name is also found in Korea and Eastern China) is perhaps the most widely known, though most camellias grown for their flowers are cultivars or hybrids
