Oleander should not be overwintered too warm
Oleander does not overwinter in the apartment
As a typical Mediterranean plant, the oleander is only partially hardy, d. H. It only tolerates frost to a maximum of minus five degrees Celsius and only for a very short time. Younger oleander plants can even survive at milder temperatures. Nevertheless, you should not overwinter the shrub in the warm apartment.
Do not cultivate oleander in the living room
Although winters in Oleander's homeland are usually very mild and rarely do temperatures drop below zero, the plant still needs a period of rest during the winter, when it regains its strength for the next growing season. For this reason Oleander is not suitable for a warm living room culture. Only plants from the tropics are not accustomed to a seasonal, but a daytime climate and therefore can stay in the apartment all year round.
Tips
Overcast oleander as cool as possible at about five degrees Celsius and bright. If there is no other way and it is cool enough, the bush survives even a dark hibernation (eg in the basement or in the garage).
