Wal-Mart? Yikes! They use pesticides.

July 29, 2007

Winston -

Walmart? They use pesticides regularly and heavily, and I believe

that malathion has been the pesticide of choice in the past. I would

not use any oleander plants from Walmart with out letting them have

ample opportunity to grow and pass the pesticides and artificial

fertilizers out - and by that I mean a minimum of weeks of regular

watering with pure water, including thorough washing of the leaves.

After a minimum of a few weeks, you might then make a test batch and

see if it causes any tingling or burning on your lips. And of course

do the skin tests.

If you got fresh oleander plants at Walmart, where did you get the

other oleander you used?
