Default Oleander Seeds

It looks like my new oleander has a seed pos. It's long and narrow.
Will this seed readily germinate and if it will, will it be true to the
original plant?

Thanks

Sheila,

Yes, normally it should. Just try it, nothing to loose :-)

and if it will, will it be true to the
original plant?


Probably not. It bears the genetic material of your plant and the one
of the "father" plant. I.e. many varities are possible.
If you like to have an identical plant, you need to grow it from a
cutting.

Best wishes
Gaby
