📷 Photo report from Russian subtropics

When only emerge kidneys on trees, and in some regions Russia still lies snow, we with you again will be transported back on warm South and admire on beautiful trees and exotic plants Sochi.

Oleander, the flower is not easy, many do not know that it is poisonous, and it is associated with a lot of legends. One of them talks about how a volcano woke up in the Mediterranean. All began to flee from the hot lava and rockfall, but the way to retreat blocked a large lake. Then a young man named Oleander decided to drink it to save people.

However, heavy with water, he couldn't budge. So, there was this flowering Bush growing in the water or on the coast. This ornamental shrub from the family kutrovyh, it meets a variety of shades from white to bright pink or yellow.

We brought it from Morocco, but it grows in China and Portugal. And the slightest evaporation of oleander can cause allergies and even headache. It is better to admire such flowers at a distance.

By the way, walking in the Park you can ride on a sightseeing car, at the same time listen and useful information about many plants growing in the arboretum.

Look at the original sculptures and floral arrangements. You will see its inhabitants and clay :-)

And such old flowerpots with angels.

If desired, you can always climb the stairs to the cottage of the founder of the arboretum Sergei Khudekov.

Here you will find many flower beds, the area is decorated and beautiful vases with bright colors.
This is - begonia.
