The Oleander (Nerium oleander) is one of the more popular plants used for landscaping in warmer climates. It flowers prolifically and stays evergreen all winter. Very easy to grow even in difficult dry areas, you can grow the Oleander in your landscape. Here is some information about the plant and how to grow the Oleander. Oleanders can grow from five to twelve feet tall. They make handsome bushes that can be used as informal hedges or spotted individually just for their beauty in the garden. Accepting of regular garden soil or dry, lean, stony soil that lacks the usual organic matter, these plants are very flexible about their soil needs. They will not tolerate wet or poorly drained soils, though. Don’t worry about fertilizing them. They demand little maintenance beyond an occasional trimming for direction or neatness. Give the Oleander full sun and as much heat as possible. These plants revel in hot, dry locations. But they also handle the salt from sea air in coastal areas perfectly
