Delivery Information View Product DescriptionLoading...Description How to Grow DeliveryAn exceptionally long flowering period plus handsome evergreen leaves makes Nerium oleander 'Red' a rewarding shrub for a large patio pot. From July to October, it bears 5-petalled, tropical-looking, cerise-red flowers that are borne in clusters at the ends of branches. Forming a tall, bushy shrub with lance-shaped, leathery, grey-green foliage it also provides evergreen structure throughout the year. This half-hardy shrub is best grown in a patio container, where it can be easily moved into a sheltered position over winter. It can also be grown in the open ground in sheltered city gardens, coastal areas and mild parts of the UK. This vigorous, fast-growing shrub brings a Mediterranean vibe to the garden. Despite its showy looks it is a resilient performer in a sheltered spot, tolerating drought, salt spray and pollution. Height and spread: 3m (10ft).
Plant height and spread is seasonal therefore we list by pot size rather than a defined plant size. The height and spread of the plant delivered will vary depending on the season, meaning arrival images are an indication only.

Grow in full sun in free-draining soil. Hardy down to -5, Nerium oleander can be grown in the border in in mild parts of the UK and coastal areas. Alternatively grow it in a container and move into a sheltered position to overwinter. Water well during the establishment phase, plants are drought tolerant once established. Responds well to pruning in the spring. Deadhead faded Oleander flowers regularly to prolong their display. Take care to wear gloves and long sleeves when pruning Oleander as contact with the foliage and sap may irritate the skin.
