Oleanders

By marjuanm | Brushstrokes of the Day | 5 Nov 2025

Hi, these flowers are called "Oleanders", but in Mexico we call them carnations (again, they're not related at all, haha).

They are plants with very fragrant flowers, excellent for a garden. Besides being elegant blooms, they fill the garden with their scent every morning. The photograph was taken in Reynosa, Tamaulipas, Mexico, a few years ago.

Hola, estas flores se llaman "Adelfas", pero en México les llamamos claveles (de nuevo no tiene nada que ver jejeje).

Son plantas con flores muy perfumadas, excelentes para tener en un jardín que además de elegantes flores, impregnen de olor nuestro jardín cada mañana. La fotografía fue tomada en Reynosa Tamaulipas, México hace algunos años.
