Luckily, on both sides of the walk path, there are shrubs and trees. They provide some relief for the walkers and joggers as they move in and out of the shade.

This is actually a poisonous species of flowering plants belonging to the dogbane family Apocynaceae. If you keep dogs, you might want to keep the plant out of their reach.
The botanical name for this plant is Adenium obesum. Common names for this plant include Sabi star, kudu, mock azalea, impala lily and desert rose.
This is one of the few plants we have. For a while, we were not very successful with it. It kept dying on us, and we do not know why. It was until I found out that it is a succulent that the reason became clear. I have been over watering it. Succulents do not need a lot of water. They do not need to be watered everyday.
Once I realised that, I water it only occasionally. Since then, it has grown healthily. And I was rewarded with these beautiful pink blooms just last week.
There were six flowers in this bloom. By the time the last flower bloomed, the first flower was looking tired and ready to fall off. The whole process - from the first bloom to the last, took about two weeks. Naturally, we are very pleased to see it bloom.
