    In Miami, our oleanders were dense and nearly two stories high.
    Always filled with orange caterpillares with black hairs that became monarch butterflies.

    It's me again, I finally got my greenhouse exhaust fan installed, and a new small heater in there, and it's looking great for growing plants in it without killing some from extreme heat. I'm looking forward to trying some new semi tender plants since I can keep most happy over winter here in zone 6a in my greenhouse.

    I’ve looked up tons of info but haven’t found an answer for my question. Hopefully you can help if you already covered as I apologize. I live in the DFW area and the Oleander is my favorite out in my flowerbed. I do not have a very good green thumb I get by though. I have lost my oleanders in the past from the cold. Last winter I managed to save part of it by putting plant covers around it my question is, should I trim them down all the way to the ground or what do I do to try to save them? My palm trees I have Christmas lights around them and then when it gets very cold, I deep water and wrap moving blankets around them as well. However, I’m not sure what to do with the Oleander. It is currently about 5’7” and there’s a little one that I planted next to it but never really took off that is about a foot high or maybe that was one that grew from last year I can’t remember. However, it stay the same height all summer. Any advice would be appreciated.

      Hello! I would mulch them heavily in winter to assure root survival incase the cold kills them back to the ground. As far as the stems and foliage is concerned, I would leave it alone as long as it is green. If the cold kills some of the plant back, just prune off the brown stems, down to where there is green inside, but I would wait until spring to do this. If the brown and dead stuff is bothering you, it's ok to prune it back, but leave a few inches of brown dead growth above the living parts to help protect what's left, mainly the inside of those stems from the cold.

    I just moved into a home that has a few small oleanders that the previous owners planted this past spring. They are about 3 feet high now since I pruned them a few week's ago. They were planted about 3 feet apart and I really want to transplant them a few more feet further from each other. When is the best time for this?

    I purchased a red oleander and am wondering how to overwinter it in Zone 5. I have an unheated greenhouse and garage. Would that be too cold? Should I bring it inside? I have a dining area that faces East so it gets full sun. Should I place there? Help!

    • @TropicalPlantParty
      @TropicalPlantParty  6 років тому

      It is very hard to evaluate someone else's growing conditions but, for me, mine does best when kept cool and dry in winter. If this is the first year you have had the oleander, then it likely has never experienced frost, so it will be most tender this year. If it is safe (no pets or children) then i would bring it inside this first year. leave it out into the 30s and upper 20s, as long it is dry, no rain, ice or snow, to give it a taste of the cold. If you notice any damage then of course bring it in. wilted leaves means it has enough and may end up dropping those leaves. Leaf drop may still occur when you bring it inside, but don't worry, they regrow wonderfully. If your greenhouse stays above 20F, then that would work also. I leave mine out well into the teens, as long it is dry, then keep it in my garage and water it very little during winter. When i bring mine in, i will show in a video the plants conditions. Prolonged cold is another factor, in the greenhouse if it is above 20f but below 40 for an extended period of time, it will not do as well. The red oleander is really tough, and can take a lot of cold, but the first year is the trickiest because they are likely grown down south, where they have never been through a freeze before. Every year you have it, the oleanders hardiness will improve. :)

    Hello my friend a plumeria is what I want to get. Where I have my Rosemary it gets a little bit too wet there in the summer only in the summer but it's in full sun and I think the plumeria would do well. Plus when I look out my kitchen window I want to be able to see a pretty plant that's interesting looking so I think a plumeria would be perfect.👉👵👈

    We're USDA Zone 7b with occasional drops to minimums of -20 once every few years for a night or 2, at this time day temperatures do also stay around -10. Could I plant the "Hardy Red" or "Hardy Pink" in a sheltered location on the southern part of a wall in the garden, it ocasionally gets a few hours of sunlight during the winter when it's sunny. Most of the year we're not experiencing any lower than -15 for 1-2 nights at most. I expect it to survive well if it's covered up at temperatures of under -10 C to protect it from frost? Not sure what is the minimum temperature the aerial part freezes back completely?

    • @borsoseduard
      @borsoseduard 5 років тому

      Figs are usually resistant to our winters, so wondering how Oleander hardy cultivars can be compared to Fig varietes which can easily handle -15 C. The last time we dropped below -20 C was around 8-9 years ago, then all figs froze from up to the ground, but their roots survived and the plants recovered completely in like 2 years or so. Then 2 years ago we experienced -18 one morning, but experienced 2-3 weeks of permanent frost during a Polar Vortex in Europe which dropped temperatures to daily maxiumums of -8 C.

    • @TropicalPlantParty
      @TropicalPlantParty  5 років тому +1

      Hi Eduard! Hardy Red and the other hardy cultivars are tolerant in zones 7b and 7a with proper citing and protection. For me the hardy red died back to the ground each winter and resprouted when warm summer temps came back. There are several varities of oleander that are supposed to more hardy than the normals ones. A few cold nights below 15 or 20 F(sorry idk Celsius) may defoliate the plants but if the average temps are warmers, say in the 40's and 50's F for your winters then they should do well as long as it is not sopping wet all of the time. Wrapping the entire plant with christmas lights (not LED lights) then covering with a frost cloth during extreme cold can help a lot with the unusual cold snaps and extremes. :)

    • @borsoseduard
      @borsoseduard 5 років тому

      @@TropicalPlantParty Thanks for the info. We regularly have a few nights with 15F, ocassionaly down to 0F in this area, but only for the night and once every few years. Good idea with the Christmas light, unfortunately it's difficult to find any non-LED lighting within the EU, we're to much eco friendly here, no more classic incandescent light bulbs either, they can only be found when imported from non-EU countries :(. I think I'll try to get one of the hardy varieties and plant it outside for the next winter, and see how well it does. At least these are pretty cheap plants even if it dies. I'm thinking of building a metallic skeleton I can cover with PE foil for the colder part of the year, which is usually second half of december - february, altough we got snow and one night of 6F last year in early March, however before march we barely got any frosty nights at all.
