San Francisco Zoo {Flowers}

Surrounding the zoo are many flowers within and outside the animals exhibits.

According to the San Francisco Zoo website the zoo's gardens are combined from five different categories which at time overlap throughout the zoo.

* Public "park-like" landscape
*Animal exhibits
* Browse plants for animal diets
* Windbreak forest
* Native plant garden, restoration and conservation areas

I think the bulk of my photos would go under the public "park-like" landscape. I remember some areas where I saw the flowers but not all so under the photo will be a little description if I could recall the location of the flower.

These were in the African Savanna area on the pathway.

These were seen after leaving the Children's Zoo.
This pink and purple one was seen near the polar bear section (although we didn't see any polar bears that day).


The pink hydrangea was seen on our way to the penguins near a park bench.



This pink flower were growing up the fences near the storks.
