Description

An Oleander standard makes a stunning addition to the home or garden – adding height, vibrant colour, and a sweet fragrance all summer long, coated in exotic pink flowers from May to September. Perfect for mixing with other green leaf varieties, as the foliage breaks up colours exceptionally and remains interesting even when the flowers fade. Oleanders are drought resistant and simply love hot and dry Mediterranean weather, yet they thrive in the UK too. Remarkably they are perfectly happy in conditions down to -5C.

This Oleander has been formed into a standard lollipop-like shape, with a head of foliage and flowers above a clear stem. An ideal gift for a loved one, and we even do the gift wrapping for you, wrapped in a brown hessian bag with a green fabric bow.

Note: We use several varieties of pink, ranging from dark hot pink to pale pink - so the exact colour you receive may vary. You will receive either a single or double flowering Oleander variety, dependant on availability.

Supplied as an established plant, approximately 95-115cm tall in a 18cm nursery pot, and gift wrapped, ready to plant or gift.

Important: Contact with Oleander foliage and its sap may irritate the skin. All parts of the Oleander Plant are toxic if ingested.

Top Tips
  • Best in large pots, in full sun, and can be moved to shelter in winter to keep looking at best
  • Take care when handling - no need to trim to shape, they will naturally branch over several years
Care Information
  • Water freely in summer and apply a balanced liquid fertiliser every two weeks until June. Then switch to high potassium fertiliser, using it until the flower buds show colour.
  • In winter, stop feeding, reduce the watering, (keep plants on the dry side).
  • Flowering occurs in late summer (July to October) on new shoots of the current season’s growth, so prune in late winter or early spring.
  • Remove all thin crowded shoots and tip-prune young plants. Cut flowered shoots by half and the side shoots to 10cm.
Delivery Information

Please allow us 3-5 working days to dispatch your order. Pre-ordered items will be sent as soon as possible after the date quoted and we'll generally ship your entire order with your pre-ordered items. When your order is dispatched, we'll send you another email with details of how to track it.

Most orders are sent on a fully-tracked courier service with Yodel. To avoid perishable items being stuck at depots and deteriorating, no signature is required, and our courier is asked to leave your order in a safe place on your property.

We'll send a tracking link when we dispatch your order, so you know when its due to arrive. Please note, once delivered we cannot be held responsible for loss or theft from your property. If you have any specific delivery instructions, please let us know - there's an option to enter a short message for the courier at the checkout.

Smaller, lighter, single-item orders may be sent through the post with Royal Mail - in which case no tracking is available.

Our experienced nursery team will always send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive when you plant them, so although most plants are very tough and will not be affected by all but the most extreme frosts or heatwaves, we avoid dispatching the most perishable plants if extreme weather is forecast, or over Bank Holiday weekends.

Please note, we cannot guarantee delivery on a certain day or time. Delivery to outlying postcode areas may take 1-2 days longer, dependent on your location.
