Nerium oleander Mathilde Ferrier Drought Tolerant Plants the inside of the spatheAfter our 1984 record shattering 9 degrees F, we began a local search for oleanders that had survived our killer freeze there weren't many.

Atop the 8' tall bushes are bouquets of double, light yellow flowers, that start for us in late June.
