Photo of okay, about this oleander...

Oleanders bloom better in full sun. I have one that receives morning sun and filtered shade that is on the east side of my property. Even though it is growing in almost solid limestone (I had bult up the area some with about 10 inches of soil), it grows so tall that I prune it back by 2/3 every 2nd or 3rd year. It does bloom. I do not water it unless we are in a severe drought.

A not so good photo of it a few years ago ...
