Nerium Oleander Pink

The Nerium oleander is a classic Mediterranean shrub that brings a touch of exotic beauty to the garden. It is highly valued for its long-lasting, profuse clusters of trumpet-shaped, vibrant pink flowers that bloom throughout the summer. With its narrow, lance-shaped, leathery, dark-green leaves, it maintains a clean, architectural form even when not in flower. It is a fantastic choice for a sunny patio, where its height and floral display create a sophisticated, resort-style atmosphere.

Size (H × W)

100 x 50 cm

Sunlight

Full Sun. This is a sun-worshipping plant. To ensure heavy flowering and a healthy, compact shape, it requires a position with maximum direct sunlight throughout the day.

Watering

Moderate. During the active growing season, keep the soil consistently moist but avoid waterlogging. Once established, it can tolerate short dry spells, but regular watering is key to maintaining those abundant blooms. In winter, keep the plant on the drier side.

Soil & Drainage

Thrives in fertile, well-drained soil. It is not overly fussy about soil type, provided it is not prone to sitting in water. In a container, use a standard, good-quality, free-draining potting compost mixed with a little horticultural grit.
