Yes, plant it and it'll be dead in 2 years with OLS.
Nonsense. My oleander is pushing 8 years old. The oleander on the beltway
medians is over 10.

OLS exists in texas.
Cancer also exists in Texas. That doesn't mean we all die from cancer.

One word "OLEANDER". Oleander loves Houston's soil and weather.
Good choice. I also use it as a screen. Not only does it grow fast and
hide
unsightly areas, it blooms profusely in May and June. For a
"stick-it-in-the-ground-and-forget-it" large shrub, oleander can't be
beat.
It's so tough that they plant it on freeway medians.
