Oleander

If you live in Las Vegas, I guarantee that you've seen an Oleander. Those lush, beautifully flowered tree-like bushes that line the freeways, surround your neighbors yard, and seem to bloom year round in variations of red, pink and white - that's them.
Why are they so popular around here? Well, Oleander tolerates poor soil and drought well. It can grow with little or no water and thrives in full, all-day sun. Oleander can be planted as a shrub, tree, border or screen. Have fun!
