    Gorgeous. I started a Oleander from seeds that my MIL sent me. Had it for years and it bloomed beautifully in a pot in the living room.

    And does it smell like baby powder as do other oleanders?

    Such a beautiful flower for something so poisonous!

    These flowers are beautiful. For some reason they remind me of Calla Lilies which is my favorite flower.

    Don’t burn the waste from this and breathe any smoke from it. The whole plant is poisonous. It looks pretty, though, and it’s ok to touch but don’t ingest any.

    These are pretty. My old ordinary oleander is almost ready to bloom, but it
    looks so different. I have no idea what it is called.

    most of the time IMO, Oleander flowers are prettier as they unfurl – such as these
