These are not the same plants. The 'vinca' you posted is the common blue periwinkle that grows in our gardens in el Norte. The 'nerium oleander' is also a completely different genus. The closest plant you posted its the rosy periwinkle, but it is still not the plant that grows here. That is the trouble with identifying it as simply 'vinca'. It requires a more exact taxonomy. The Teresita has a single flower, not double petals. The petals of the flower are separate, not overlapped petals like the 'rosy periwinkle' has. The Mexicans around here say Teresita has been used since mesoamerican times; it is definitely not poisonous. Another photo of the plant from our garden
