Oleander, Nerium (Nerium oleander)


Oleander is a large sun-loving evergreen Mediterranean shrub cultivated since ancient times. It has dark green leathery lance shaped leaves in whorls around the long sparingly branched stems. The fragrant flower clusters, in various colors, are showy and appear over much of the summer. Oleander is an excellent seacoast plant and often grown in containers in colder climates.
