Description

Never without a crop of deep pink flowers, this vigorous, disease resistant oleander is simply superb. It comes to us from Kevin Hurd of Austin, Texas, a man who knows a good plant for hot climates when he sees one. We hope to develop a series of other colors, but we have yet to find any Nerium that's this good. Tolerant of heat, drought, armadillos, air pollution, salt, and alkaline soil.
