Striking Flower Bud and Blooms
I believe these buds and blooms are oleanders.
I photographed them on a hike on vacation in North Carolina in June.
They were just beginning to bloom.
All parts of this plant are toxic to pets and people, so I would never plant one in my yard, but I do think they are beautiful!
Photos by me @violetmed, taken on my iPhone.
They are quite beautiful, toxic plants always seem to be the prettiest. Do you think the people can be the same...I wonder at times.LOL
Haha, yes beautiful people can be toxic!
They are beautiful flowers, I love the dusting of pink throughout.
Oh yes, I love the pink also!
