I had pink oleanders at my previous house that bloomed year round and so I was so excited when I seen the Austin Pretty Limits oleanders that claim to bloom year round. I put them in my backyard in full sun after purchasing them at Lowes and they haven’t had a single bloom yet. It’s been 5 months and I’m really disappointed. I was waiting to plant them in the ground until we put our pool in because I didn’t want them to get damaged but I’m trying to decide if I really want to keep them.

No blooms! I planted this in May 2021, and while it is green and has grown a lot in height, it did not produce a single bloom this year! So disappointing. I was so excited to plant this, as I live very close to Austin, and I figured that if it grew well in Austin that it would also do well in Houston. Other types of oleanders thrive in my area and bloom for much of the year, but so far no blooms at all on this variety. My only hope is that it will start blooming as it gets older. It is now 4 feet tall and lush with greenery, so it is not a baby plant. It is planted in full sun and receives adequate water. Not sure why it has never bloomed...
