Red Oleander

Red oleander is a popular evergreen flowering shrub in California, known for its profusion of red flowers that bloom from late spring through fall. 

Resilient and fast-growing (2-3 ft./year under optimal conditions), Nerium oleander tolerates drought, heat, wind, salt spray, and poor soil. Red oleander can grow up to 20 ft. tall but is easily maintained at a lower height and desired shape. Easy-to-grow, low-maintenance, and adaptable, oleander can be used as a hedge, privacy screen, background shrub, border plant, or patio container.
