Red oleander is a popular evergreen flowering shrub in California, known for its profusion of red flowers that bloom from late spring through fall.
Resilient and fast-growing (2-3 ft./year under optimal conditions), Nerium oleander tolerates drought, heat, wind, salt spray, and poor soil. Red oleander can grow up to 20 ft. tall but is easily maintained at a lower height and desired shape. Easy-to-grow, low-maintenance, and adaptable, oleander can be used as a hedge, privacy screen, background shrub, border plant, or patio container.
How large does Red Oleander grow?
It typically grows 6 to 20 feet tall and around 4 to 10 feet wide depending on climate and pruning.
What kind of light does it prefer?
Full sun is ideal—at least six hours of direct sunlight daily encourages strong growth and flowering.
What type of soil and drainage does it need?
It prefers well-drained soil and tolerates poor soils. Avoid heavy, water-logged clay or constantly soggy conditions.
Is Red Oleander safe, and are there any special considerations?
All parts of the plant are highly toxic if ingested, and the sap can irritate skin. Handle with gloves, keep away from pets and children, and avoid burning cuttings.
