Perhaps beauty doesn't require names. But walking along the cozy streets of resort towns, sometimes you want to find out whose aroma is woven into the healing sea air, giving the walk a special flavor and mood
The resort town of Hurghada is not a very wide strip of land reclaimed from the desert, located between the pristine Red Sea and a chain of mountains called the "Red Sea Hills". In the morning, the sun is born from the sea, retiring into the desert, which stretches beyond the peaks of the mountain range.
Such neighbors do not prevent the city from being green. Hurghada is decorated with many different types of plants, among which you can find herbs, shrubs, trees, vines, cacti. It takes a thick book to tell about everyone. Therefore, today we will admire only a few trees with beautiful and fragrant flowers.
Royal Delonix
Today, no resort can do without this tree, located where summer reigns all year round, allowing evergreens not to worry about preparing for hibernation. True, in areas with periodically coming protracted drought, even plants with the adjective "royal" graze and shed their foliage. This does not affect the vegetation of the resorts, because there the trees are carefully looked after and watered in a timely manner.
With its large openwork double-cut leaves, Delonix covers the ground from overheating, creating a thick shadow and saving people from excessive heat. It is a pity that the salty soil is not suitable for the tree, and therefore you will not see the royal on the beaches of Delonix. We have to hide from sunburn under wooden or covered with dry palm branches, "fungi".
The beauty of the tree is crowned with inflorescences of large scarlet flowers. Flowering is so abundant that it even hides the green foliage. It is not for nothing that among many peoples Delonix is called the "Fire Tree".

Tekoma
The low slender trees of Tekoma, easily tolerating drought, adorn the streets, courtyards, roadsides of many resorts. In culture, there are many types of plants with this name. We will admire the Tekoma yellow.
The native continent of Tekoma is America, where it grows in both the North and South parts of the continent. Being an unpretentious plant and capable of strengthening and improving the soil, the plant quickly spread throughout the world, where it is sunny and warm. In some places, the tree has taken root so that it has become a weed, displacing local plants.
The simple leaves of the plant, oval-oblong, are decorated along the edge with coquettish teeth. Although trees can tolerate drought, the leaves will fall off if they are not dry for a long time.
The spectacular golden yellow funnel-shaped flowers like to grow in company, forming elegant inflorescences. If you pick one flower and lick the tip of the straw, your tongue will taste sweet. Therefore, Tekoma is loved by bees and butterflies that feed on the nectar of flowers.
Flowers are replaced by pods, hiding yellow winged seeds inside themselves.
Plumeria
Very different species of Plumeria grow on our planet. Some delight with their decorative leaves all year round, others periodically shed their foliage, leaving a bare trunk in order to show the world fresh green leaves when favorable conditions return.
Leaves differ in their shape and appearance. That's just, like many tropical plants, leaf juice, if it gets into the eyes or on the skin of a person, can cause painful irritation. Therefore, when collecting leaves for an exotic herbarium, protective measures should be taken.
Since Plumeria flowers are pollinated by nocturnal insects, they begin to scent in the evening, fragrant all night when resort life is in full swing. After all, during the day, tourists prefer to hide under the protection of air conditioners or beach fungi.
Plumeria flowers can be white, white-yellow, different shades of pink. It is interesting to observe how they gradually spread their petals out of a dense cocoon.
Below are the flowers of the described plants:
