With its leathery green leaves and long bloom season, it adds color and structure to sunny borders, hedges, and Mediterranean-style gardens. These 6-inch cuttings are ready to root and grow into vigorous, drought-tolerant plants.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOleander is a versatile choice for warm-climate landscapes, tolerating heat, wind, and poor soil once established. Its dense growth habit makes it useful as a privacy screen or specimen shrub, and the pink blossoms attract pollinators. Note: all parts of oleander are toxic if ingested, so handle with care and keep away from children and pets.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003ePlant Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProduces clusters of pink flowers over a long summer season\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEvergreen foliage provides year-round interest\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHighly drought-tolerant once established\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThrives in full sun and reflected heat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIdeal for hedges, screens, and coastal gardens\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eGrowing Information\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBotanical Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Nerium oleander\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlant Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Evergreen shrub\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSunlight:\u003c\/strong\u003e Full sun\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSoil:\u003c\/strong\u003e Well-drained soil; tolerates poor, sandy, or rocky soils\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWater Requirements:\u003c\/strong\u003e Low to moderate; drought-tolerant once established\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrowth Habit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Upright, bushy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUSDA Hardiness Zones:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8-11\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBloom Season:\u003c\/strong\u003e Summer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMature Height:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6-12 feet (depending on climate and pruning)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpacing:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4-6 feet apart for hedges\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003ePlanting \u0026amp; Care\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eTo root these cuttings, insert the cut end into a well-draining rooting medium such as a mix of perlite and peat moss. Keep the medium consistently moist but not waterlogged, and provide bright, indirect light until roots form. Once rooted, transplant into a larger pot or garden bed after the last frost. Choose a sunny location with well-drained soil. Water regularly during the first growing season to help establish a deep root system; thereafter, oleander is quite drought-tolerant. Prune lightly after flowering to maintain shape and remove any dead or damaged growth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e7 Pink Oleander cuttings, each approximately 6 inches long.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67795494469942,"sku":"FOLIA2-021","price":57.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0994\/4884\/8694\/files\/il_fullxfull.6684719548_rak5.jpg?v=1792670550","url":"https:\/\/blakesflora.com\/products\/7-pink-oleander-cuttings-drought-tolerant-flowering-shrub-6-inch","provider":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
