Nerium oleander ‘Single Pink’
Nerium oleander 'Single Pink', Single Pink Oleander is the most iconic and widely planted form, offering a romantic, soft splash of color that thrives with neglect. It blooms relentlessly throughout the warm months with large clusters of cheerful pink, funnel-shaped flowers. This fast-growing shrub forms a broad, dense mound that is exceptionally resilient to heat, drought, wind, and salt, making it a staple for freeway plantings, coastal hedges, and low-maintenance gardens.
