From the Mediterranean, just look at this adorable #Nerium oleander, most commonly known as #oleander or nerium!
It is a shrub or small tree grown worldwide in temperate and subtropical areas as an ornamental and landscaping plant.
I’ve seen heaps of these around #melbourne #Australia blooming for some weeks now and have featured quite a few. But not like this one.
This type with the distinctive two toned leaves are a rarity these days, unlike throughout my childhood when they were more abundant in number. This #summer I’ve seen the green leaf only variety, in the main.
Was a treat to spot this one this morning.
Cheery and gorgeous!
🙏💖

Two gorgeous #nerium #oleander on a nature strip in #OakleighSouth #Australia.
Both blooming well and smelling diving. I must say, the white was more pungent… even standing a metre away.
Just magnifico.

#Nerium #oleander are bursting with colour and are in abundance throughout much of #melbourne #Australia at the present time.
Pinks (light and dark) and white seem to be the most dominant.
They’re really lovely. This was sprawling over a suburban fence in #StKilda - on a busy road. A feast for the eyes!

A pre #sunset snap for you.
This is a lovely pink #nerium in #Richmond #Australia.
Late in the summer season brings these wonderful flowers out in vast numbers. They come in white and deep red also.
These ones however, are a pale pink with a light yellow stigma and style, delicate in appearance but a robust flower and plant in reality. Five petals each flower.
I call this simple elegance.
🙏🙌

Another #oleander (#nerium ) - in beautiful shades of pink.
It is often associated with the #Mediterranean and is mainly cultivated as an ornamental and landscaping plant.
In #Centralvictoria #Australia, they appear to grow well in any soil and setting.

@NessaUndreza They have a great seed pod too. This is one I snapped years ago in #Morocco

On this warm day, I found more #oleander or sometimes known as #nerium.
It is a shrub or small tree that thrives in temperate and subtropical areas.
The tree (last pic) looks dry in the afternoon heat, but overall the flowers present as vibrant - and red - as ever!!

The #oleander (or #nerium), is a shrub or small tree grown worldwide in temperate and subtropical areas as an ornamental and landscaping plant.
Apparently it is so widely cultivated that no region of origin has been identified, though it is usually associated with the Mediterranean. No wonder these are thriving here in the dry heat of #Centralvictoria #Australia!!
