A Bloom of Beauty and Resilience
The Mexican Olive flower, known scientifically as Cordia boissieri, is a radiant bloom that graces the landscapes of southern Texas and northeastern Mexico. With its trumpet-shaped white flowers and soft silver-green foliage, this plant is a true gem of the subtropical regions where it thrives. But beyond its good looks, the Mexican Olive holds a deeper story one of adaptability, ecological value, and cultural significance.The flowers of the Mexican Olive are breathtaking in their simplicity. Large and showy, they feature crinkled white petals with a yellow throat, often compared to crepe paper in texture. These blossoms appear almost year-round in warmer climates, attracting not just the eyes of onlookers but also the attention of bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds.Their luminous white glow in sunlight gives the tree an ethereal presence especially when contrasted against the plant's velvety, gray-green leaves.
