Found Oleander Plant

[Guest guest]

There are both links and photos in the files section of this group

that show and tell how to identify oleander.

 

Your best bet would be to take the leaves to a good horticulturist at

a local nursery and have him/her identify them.

 

All nerium leaves do look very similar - although different varieties

of the plant may be tall, short, and more or less bushy.
