Nerium oleander on stem – white flower

Appearance of the plant

Compact crown on a graceful trunk, giving it a tree-like shape

Narrow, dark green leaves that remain green all year round

Beautiful white flowers in clusters during the flowering period (spring to late summer)

Location

Sunny and warm place — the more sun, the richer the flowering

Ideal for a terrace, balcony or garden in a sheltered spot

Can be overwintered indoors in a light, cool place

Water requirement

Keep the potting soil slightly moist in summer; check daily during warm periods

Water less in winter, but do not allow to dry out completely.

Tolerates short periods of drought, but blooms better with regular watering

Winter hardiness

Moderately winter hardy: tolerates temperatures down to approx. -5°C

In cold areas, overwinter in a cool, light room or protect well with fleece.

More sensitive to frost in a pot than in open ground

Fun fact: The oleander has been a favorite in Mediterranean gardens since ancient times and is considered a symbol of eternal love in some cultures because of its long flowering period.
