Oleander Is A Hardy Bush With Lovely Blooms!
Are you familiar with Oleander? If not I've got some great news for you, well mostly great that is unless you have kids that tend to eat plants. Oleander is poisonous, but then again so are many plants, so just use your best judgement on that one! Okay back to the good news: oleander is a wonderfully hardy bush that is drought resistant and the kind of thing often planted next to the highway here in Israel on account of its resiliant nature! Stick a large oleander in a little pot and it will still live, maybe not flourish but certainly live! The oleander seen here actually lived in a large tin can for a good ten years before I inherited it and lived to tell the story, get my point?
Now my oleander is living the great life with a wonderful spot in my container garden overlooking our mountain view!
This is also oleander and those fluffy blooms are just gorgeous, right?
And yet some more oleander! Lovely indeed!

Beautiful! Do you know what it’s called in Hebrew? I’d love to buy some of the seeds for my porch. Thanks,

Nice to see this color of oleander. Even in India its common across the highways coz its requires less care.
