You are the only one with a morbid obsession with oleanders, Ben Hiney. I
have grown them and had no problems with them. Being well aware of the
plant's extreme toxicity, I handle them with care and always wash my hands
with soap and water after handling them.

As you have been told repeatedly, you dimwit, the plants are poisonous only
if the plant parts or sap is ingested. Growing them is not a problem because
the toxins are not carried through the air as you seem to think toxic means.

Nobody needs to provide you with a multitude of examples because you are not
worth the effort. Do your own research on the subject and go away. You will
never admit that your half-baked notions are completely wrong despite the
fact that everybody else is telling you so.

Do everyone a big favor and go back to your masturbating to gay porn and
leaves the garden questions to sane people, you deranged mutant troll. You
have proven to be a total waste of everyone's time and effort.

You are one crazy mofo crackpot, Ben Him.

Projection noted.

Why don't you make yourself a cup of oleander tea and tell us how good
it
was. That is, if you are alive long enough to get back to your 'puter!!

Why don't you go make yourself a shit sandwich?

Oleander aren't toxic to grow but they are deadly if any part of the
plant
is ingested. There are just too many reports of people dying after
ingesting
leaves or sap to take the problem of toxicity lightly.

How many are "too many"? Millions of homeowners have oleander growing in
their yards and gardens and you oleander-fearing kooks were able to
produce
precisely TWO victims - and those two died under very mysterious
circumstances. Meanwhile, there are dozens of other toxic plants
surrounding
our homes, yet only oleander is the victim of your paranoia.

People who live in morbid fear of oleander need to get a grip. Perspective
is needed - fearing oleander is about as baseless as fearing death from
being hit by a meteorite. There are far bigger risks laying around the
house
than oleander.

I have an Oleander cutting rooted in a pot from my old home
that I moved from in 2002. I am looking to plant this in
the
ground this year and I am
wondering what type of light requirements they need? I was
looking
at a perfect spot but I think it only gets a few hours morning
sun
and then the rest of the day is shaded. Can anyone help?

The first thing I will tell you is toss it in the trash. Oleander
is
poisonous to humans. The leaves, the flowers, the bark, the
roots.
But if you must... plant it in full sun to get flowers, part
shade
to
get leaves.

(sigh) Not this crap again.

Yes, it is toxic. But in order to ingest a toxic level, you have
to
eat a LOT of it. And from what I hear, oleander tastes extremely
bitter and nasty. So I challenge you to produce a credible news
story
that shows oleander is the dangerous menace to humanity that you
claim
it is.

Here's one:

BTW, it turns out that these 2 ate a LOT of oleander over a period of
days,
if they indeed did eat it willingly. So much so that there was a thick
layer
in their stomachs and much of the material was digested in their
intestines.
