This lovely flower was in the tropical greenhouse at the botanic garden but I couldn't find any identification on it that day and haven't identified it yet. If anyone knows please let me know. All comments appreciated. PS. Thanks to Elizabeth and Frank for identifying this for me!

Kathy - It's very pretty (flower and photo), but that doesn't help you identify it either. Thad

A beautiful soft pink, love the details. They are Oleander . Most I see locally are very tall with white or pink blooms.

I agree with Elizabeth.Wikipedia says Oleander is one of the most poisonous plants in the world and contains numerous toxic compounds, many of which can be deadly to people, especially young children.

In order to discover who you are, first learn who everybody else is; you're what's left.

Such a sweet shade of pink and I love the delicate and soft look to the petals! Beautifully captured, Kathy!
