Good afternoon my friends of this appreciated gardening community, welcome to a new blog, it is a pleasure to greet each of you 😊

Yesterday I was walking near my house, well in a square that is close to the area where I live, it is a very small square and it is in front of a stadium, as it is the rainy season here I could notice that the mountain has grown a lot, it is growing in the blink of an eye, the truth is, although it sounds a bit exaggerated, it is true, and so when it rains a lot it is a perfect opportunity for the plants to grow and begin to bear their first flowers and fruits. Some of the plants here give beautiful flowers. which are worthy of appreciation as the following image was of a very beautiful tree also near a square in my area and it caught my attention so much that I decided to take a photo of it.

Photo taken by me a month ago, tree with beautiful flowers in purple tones.

That day I was telling you about I was walking through that square and I found these peculiar pink flowers. The plant is a somewhat medium-sized tree with large leaves and its flowers are pink and other white ones with yellow tones in the center, they have a rich talcum aroma. Very delicious baby flowers grow in bunches and in the distance you can see the color of their flowers, these flowers decorated the place very well and the people who passed by were attracted to them as well as several little birds that came to drink their nectar.

That is why, while browsing the Internet, I wanted to find out a little more about the history of this beautiful flower and I want to share with you a little of this incredible review about this peculiar plant.

In modern Polynesian culture, the Plumeria flower is used by women to show whether they want to be in a relationship or not. If they place it above their right ear, it means they are looking for a relationship and if they wear it above their left ear it means they are busy. The Plumeria flower represents loyalty in Hindu culture. Hindu women wear the flowers in their hair at their wedding, to show that they are loyal to their husbands.

The name Frangipani comes from the Italian nobleman Marquis of Frangipani, who invented scented gloves in the 16th century. People associated the essence of Frangipani with these scented gloves and called this flower Frangipani. The name Plumeria comes from the French botanist Charles Plumier, from the 17th century. Described a wide range of Plumerias
