I am creating a sample app to exercise with the FB Graph API using Javascript.

What I want to do is, let the user add a text entry on a diary, and attach an image. I'd store the text entry on my server, and post the image (or multiple images) on the default app photo album.

But, I don't want all my app pictures to be grouped together, I'd like to categorize them.

I.e. I want to post entries about my garden, and an album for every tree / flower I have. Do you know if (and if so, how) can I create a sub-album inside by app album?

There is no such 'sub album' functionality, but there's no reason your app can't create different albums via the regular API and use those for the uploads

Ok, so instead of using the default application album, which has no current limit on the # of photos I can post into, I should use regular albums, limited to 200 photos each. Maybe when an album is filled up I can move the old photos to the default application album, or just avoid complexity and create a new album with the month name, like "Geraniums January 2012. I just wonder what would be best and less invasive for a user that may add lots of photos (say 10 per day). –  manduino Jan 17 '13 at 6:21
